Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / July 2005Al-cat-raz
Hi folks, we were planning for quite some years to let our cats out in the garden. This year it finally happened. We got a fence around the garden (1.685 m²). It is 2m high and has 45° angled edges on top. When we let the cats out for the first time, we had a lot of fun. They had a small (3 x 3 m) outside run before, so they all ran out and stopped at the former boarder of the 3 x 3m outside run and sat down. Then they realized, that there was no longer a net to prevent them from going further. Suddenly we had a bunch of 5 cm high and 50 cm long cats carefully examining their new territory:-) Now we can sit on the terrace and watch the cats play outside. It is so much fun to see them chase each other, jump and run without sliding all the time (inside we have a parquet floor). As soon as I processed all the pics we took, I will give you a link to share:-) Purrs to you Inge & Volker and the catgang  SignatureCatManiacs World: http://www.gwsystems.com/inge > Hi folks, > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > Purrs to you > Inge & Volker and the catgang I'm so glad they can enjoy the outside with you!

I'm going to show these to DH and my kids. How long did it take to make your enclosure? Did you do it yourselves? Thanks so much for posting these!

How long did it take to make > your enclosure? Did you do it yourselves? We were planning the enclosure for about 5 years. We wanted a professional company build the fence. So we saved some money and this year it finally happened:-) We didn't use our beautiful garden for 5 years, because we couldn't stand sitting on the terrace and see our cats sitting at the windows inside with big and sad eyes watching us. Now we can go out together and have fun sitting on the terrace or playing badminton:-) Tientje likes us playing badminton. He watches the ball and when it falls to the ground, he catches and kills it:-) The cats enter Al-cat-raz through a cat-flap which is build in one of the livingroom windows.

Those cats look so HAPPY to be in this "prison!" :) Actually you are right *g*, but we chose the name for it because its an island with almost no chance of escape:-)) The big advantage of it is, that we don't have to worry anymore that the cats could be hit by a car or walk with someone passing by:-) Purrs to you Inge and the catgang > Hi Adrian:-) > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Purrs to you > Inge and the catgang I'm not surprised you smile with all those happy cats arround you. SignatureAdrian (Owned by Snoopy & Bagheera) A house is not a home, without a cat. Hi Adrian:-) Am 24.07.2005 schrieb Adrian: > I'm not surprised you smile with all those happy cats arround you. that is true:-) You should see the cats when the birds enter the garden. Suddenly you see a bunch of white, flat spots in the grass, motionless except the tips of their tails, whipping in excitement. Fortunately for the birds they are no experienced hunters as Tientje and She are, so we had no victims until now. Purrs to you Inge and the catgang Inge, how wonderful for your masters. I hope they all have years and years of enjoyment out of the enclosure.

These pics just emphasize how close domesticated cats are to their wild cousins -- by posture you'd think they could be lions in a zoo!
