Keep cats out of your garden, safely and efficiently, with a motion-activated burst of
ultrasonic sound.
Protect your garden, plants or sandbox without chemicals or fences. When cats come within
range, the CatStop® automatic outdoor cat deterrent emits a sudden burst of ultrasonic sound
(that humans can't hear) - the sound startles cats, and teaches them to stay away. Installation is
easy - just place the Cat Stop in the garden or outdoor area that you want to protect, and it's
ready to go.
Cat Stop
- provides a safe but effective deterrence
- keeps cats out of gardens, sandboxes and other areas day and night without chemicals or unsightly barriers
- monitors up to 280 square feet (26 square meters)
- operates for up to six months on a single 9-volt battery
How & Why it Works
The Cat Stop is easy to use. Simply install a 9-volt battery and then place the
unit in your garden, with an unobstructed view of the area you want to protect.
There are no controls or adjustments. The built-in motion sensor detects any
cats entering the area and emits a piercing, high-decibel alarm that startles the
cat and frightens it away. Since the sound is ultrasonic, you and your
neighbors cannot hear it.
The Contech CatStop® is an effective cat repellent and deterrent for several reasons
- a powerful burst of ultrasonic sound startles the cat
- the cat equates the location with the unpleasant occurrence
- the cat avoids the location in the future
- unlike pest deterrents that operate continuously, the Cat Stop unit waits for the animal to
come into its range before activating, making the function unpredictable for the cat, and
therefore more effective.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Cat Stop's range?
The Cat Stop can sense movement within 20 feet (just over six
metres) in an 80 degree angle outward from the unit. The
CatStop stands 12 inches (30 centimetres) high.
Will the Cat Stop work on all cats?
The Cat Stop works on many cats but there will always be some
exceptions to the rule. Cats with poor hearing or an unusual
hearing range may not respond to the Cat Stop.
Can my cat hear the Cat Stop from inside the house?
Happily, we've had no reports of this being a problem. The
Cat Stop is directional. Unless there is something in front of it for
the sound to bounce off of and back toward your house, your cat
is not likely to be affected inside the house. The sound does not
penetrate walls. However, the sound will penetrate an open
window or screen door.
