The fence is an 8 foot wood fence, he will not be able to climb it at all. There is one bush which is a grape vine bush thing. The backyard is completly closed in. I did try to put a harness on him when he was a kitten and he was fighting so I gave up on trying. It wasn't worth stressing him out. I will go out and get a coller with a little hook thing on it so I can hook him up to a leash and let him out that way.

Thanks again.
