ABOUT HOW HIGH CAN CATS JUMP FROM THE FLOOR?

The mean height of an adult cat is somewhere between 1 foot and 30 inches.



The healthy average adult cat can jump up to six times their height in a single jump (measured from the ground to the shoulders), which is somewhere between 150 cm and 180 cm, but surprisingly some will reach a jump height of 8 feet or 240 centimeters!

However small, elderly, or sick cats will not be able to jump that high.

A healthy cat can leap over a fence that is 6 feet or less. This means that if you want to keep them safe in your yard, you'll need a cat fence barrier. Keep in mind that cats' paws and claws are designed to climb with great ease.

Therefore, most cats will not leap over fences; they will grab the top, pull up and cross over. To grab the top, all they have to do is jump or climb high enough. Of course, a cat can climb as high as it wants if the fence has gaps, such as chain link or chicken wire.

This is why you should carefully inspect every fence in your backyard.
