Welcome to our forum and I am so very sorry for the loss of your kitty. I do not recommend an electric fence for a cat. They work for dogs, but cats can jump and can find trees and roofs to get around them. The easiest thing is to create an outdoor environment for your cat with a cat enclosure. There are thousands of pictures online of what you can do. There are portable ones, permanent ones. Large ones, small ones, expensive ones, etc. There is the "Purrfect Fence" as well. If you are planning on spending money on an electric fence, I would put that towards something that will truly contain your cat.
Or, you can train your cat to walk on a harness and leash. That means YOU have to be with the cat at all times.
Many people allow their cats to roam the outdoors, but there are many dangers out there that can end their lives. We can only do our best to keep our kitties safe.
