We also have cats and thought they would be safe within the confines of a CYV walls and fence. That was until my husband saw a bobcat one early morning and one of the cats cowering under a chair. His dog sensed something and went out barking. The cat jumped 10' to the wall and ran down it. We were lucky and it was a huge wake up call. We have a pool and birdcage, so now that is where they are allowed. Learn from our mistakes...The lanai is a safe place, unless you want to open up your outdoor space and put up a bird cage.
