Protect grass seed

Hi, I have another question please.
I am putting down some grass seed on an area of about 3m by 1.5m. We have noticed a local cat has been using the area as it's toilet and don't want it to do so when the seed is down. Can you use Gardener's fleece to cover it while it gets established? Or is it too thick? I don't want to use netting as I have lots of birds and a few hedgehogs and I'd rather not take the risk of them getting caught up in it, even if it is pulled tight.
Any advice is gratefully received
Rachel

I think fleece might keep light out, especially at this time of year, but it's not something I've tried.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
