"Cheryl" wrote in message ... I posted a picture of Shamrock climbing it in alt.binaries.pictures.animals LOL He almost got out so I've had to enclose the top, too. It's under my deck in the rear of the house (eastern exposure) and the mesh is 7 1/2' tall so I didn't think he'd climb it but he was determined to get out. The picture is under the thread called "Climbing Kitty" and I posted it last night. It doesn't show the whole thing but I'll have to get a few of those up. Check back on http://community.webshots.com/album/48246898KBEaSJ in a few days and I'll try to get some better pictures up there. It isn't portable, though. I saw that one and had thought it was you when you mentioned your enclosure, but it was already deleted from my cache so I couldn't double check. That was one cute picture! He really wanted out, didn't he?! And his little brother (sister) staring right at the camera made it especially adorable! S/he really did look like s/he was wondering "What the heck is he doing?" Or maybe it was "Let me out so I can do it, too!" And might I say, Shamrock is one agile cat. I don't think my cat could ever manage a climb like that! Then again, I didn't think she could catch and eat a bird, either... rona |

"Karen Chuplis" wrote in message ... Rona, if you can make it look like a little garden, they probably wouldn't raise a fit. You know, add some little cosmetic architectural ornamentation on the outside (are you in the U.S.? Lots of that type of thing at flea markets, second hand stores and even home decor places) and make it "pretty" and you could claim it's a gazebo or roman temple that's just screened in. Karen There's a plan! I'm in Canada, and there are lots of garage sales in my area. I'm not very good at the decorating thing, though, so my little enclosure might end up looking like another garage sale :-). I'm not very good at building things, either, so who knows what'll happen! (I'm still working on that cat tree idea...and the scratching post thing...and...) rona |

"Priscilla Ballou" wrote in message ... I wonder how the feathers and bones affect the caloric total. They may add some in, but I wonder how many calories are burned in digesting those extras. Judging from how tired she was yesterday, lots :-). She used up a lot of energy catching the bird, eating it, then playing around with the heart (mom said when she finally remembered to let Kitty back in, she opened the door and saw Kitty batting the heart--or some other innard--back and forth on the front step). She was still up at 5 asking for her breakfast, though, and ate all of her dinner last night--in one sitting. I think she doesn't really have a stomach. That's why she's never full. rona |
