The Cats get an "extension!"

[borderdawn]

I was going to replace the Cat pen a while ago, but its in really good nick, so decided to put an extension on the front instead. They love their pen but I wanted a little more space, as I leave them in it when I go out, if its fine and not too cold. :mrgreen:
They couldnt wait to try it out!!

That's fab Dawn, they have lots of space now..... I bet they love basking in the sunshine out there...:D

[borderdawn]

They do Mags, they love their pen, they willingly go in it and stay there even with the door open, its just I feel better now they have a bit more space, if I was to leave them for a good few hours.

What are you doing this weekend?:-D

[mattde]

Yeah once you have randoms sorted , put me down for one.
I've been quoted over £1000 for a custom made cage to be built on the back of the house to allow me to have the patio doors and windows open without M&M doing a runner.

Lovely pen extension for the cats! Its really nice :-D What a nice way to spend the day!
Our cats have their own kitty proofed backyard - they love it - they've been meowing at us to let them outside to lay in the sun :cat27 We can't wait to let them out again!

[borderdawn]

Thanks all.

The garden is cat proofed too, with inverted fencing, its just Im sure they are safe in the pen when im out.

Matt, which comapny quoted that? You can get them much cheaper depending on what you want.

Just a local company that does metal work.
It was going to be fully galvanized steel cage custom made and fitted on the back of the house, with a roof as well.
i thought 3-400 would be ok but 1k no way.

Go for a wooden one? Much cheaper and doesnt look as "industrial" There are loads that do them any size to fit on to sheds, walls etc... the same as the extension I bought.

Thanks Alex.:D

I did think steel was a little over kill, cage built for a lion :-)

LOL!!

I was thinking something like this:

3 sides only, the fourth being your back door/back of house.

Dawn, you could start a new business as I want one too! It all looks very smart!

[Moli]

Very nice Dawn, perfect for the boys to have some fresh air and be safe....

[dandysmom]

That is very cool, Dawn, love it!

[borderdawn]

Cheers all, it didnt cost too much and is easily erected. I have had te "main" pen for a few years, originally it was for my Ferrets.
