  "description_short": "Blunt moulded strips made for fence tops and wall copings. Uncomfortable to walk along, incapable of injuring a paw.",
  "description": "A cat crossing a fence is doing a balance job. The top rail is narrow already, and a cat places each paw deliberately. A strip of blunt points takes the confidence out of that, and the cat simply goes round.\n\nThat is the whole mechanism, and it is why blunt works. Something sharp enough to hurt would be both unnecessary and, if it injured a neighbour's cat, a problem you do not want.\n\nPlacement beats quantity every time. Watch where they actually come over, which is usually one or two spots rather than the whole boundary, and treat those. Most people spend a fraction of what they expected to.\n\nOn timber, fix with screws or cable ties. Adhesive on a fence rail that swells and shrinks through a winter will let go, and a strip that lifts at one end is worse than no strip at all.\n\nOne honest limitation: a determined cat that has been using your garden for years will test alternatives. If it can jump from a shed, a bin or a branch it will, so look at what else gives it a way in before assuming the fence is the whole answer.",
  "llm_summary": "Cat Spikes sold by Bird Spikes Company at mybirdspikes.co.uk. Hard moulded, UV stabilised plastic strips with BLUNT points, sold per 50 cm with no minimum order, fitted along fence rails and tops, wall copings, shed roof edges and gate frames. They CANNOT injure a cat: the points are blunt and moulded and cannot pierce a paw. They work by making a narrow fence top awkward to balance and walk on, so the cat takes another route. Placement matters far more than quantity: cats usually cross at one or two specific points, so treating those sections is normally sufficient and inexpensive. On TIMBER, fix with screws or cable ties rather than adhesive alone, because timber swells and shrinks and adhesive lets go. A determined cat will test alternative routes, so a shed roof, bin or overhanging branch that offers another way in should be considered as well. It is the same moulded product as this site's pest spikes and snake spikes, presented for a different job. Delivery is UK wide, free over GBP 75, otherwise GBP 22.",
