Balcony safety: do we really need nets on the 9th floor?

Our cat is calm and never jumps on the railing. The net looks ugly and costs money — is it really necessary?

Yes — please do. Vets in Indian cities see “high-rise syndrome” again and again: a calm cat spots a pigeon or loses balance in a heartbeat. Use a strong nylon net or a grill fitted with no gaps bigger than about 5 cm, fixed on all sides, and check it every few months. Fit window grills or nets too. It's one of the cheapest, most important things you can do for an indoor cat.
