Dixie has a 10 x 10 x 6 foot tall dog kennel (a shade topper is on
the way) that ran about $200. If you buy the panels you can add on
to the enclosure or reconfigure it as needed. Until you are very
sure where the little darlings can sneak out you need to spend time
with them there. Usually they can get under the door or where the
door meets the bar. It is easy to fix these places but you have to
know where they are and the cats will tell you if you listen and
give them enough time. You may be able to find chain link panels/
kennels used or on sale. Dixie has not had hers very long but she
likes it. Ebony and Mi Tu loved theirs. They had almost 24/7/365
access to it thru a pet door.

Yes, and for some reason, I am thinking that they do not have the
"animal cruelty" problem there that we have here.
I could be wrong.
My cats actually seem "healthier" since they have access to the
fresh air.
No matter what the weather is like, they are out there.
At night, of course, they have to sleep on top of me.

Susan,
I noticed that about England on a British cat chat site that I was
once a member of. But they all had backyards that were very small
with fences and very interesting tops to the fences that kept the
cats from crawling over. I hope someday to have a nice cat
enclosure, but I could never have a fenced in yard. Our yard is
much too big—plus we like our neighbors and don’t want to fence
them out! J But, I do sometimes feel cruel not letting the kitties
out. I know they’d love to run around and roll around in the grass.
This will remind me to keep saving for an enclosure!
