Title: My article in Cat World
Post by: Gillian Harvey on July 09, 2009, 18:34:13 PM

My article on cat enclosures is in Cat World (again) - August edition. Its actually the same one that was in before, think it was last year or the year before. Page 32 - in case anyone missed it the last time!  ;) Slightly re-worked from last time I believe, although i havent had a chance to read it all through yet and compare it with the original  :)

Its not what I have now for the cats, as they can all go out in the garden here, but its what I did where I lived before - after I lost several cats on the road. The house was in a cul de sac, but the road at the top of the close was a quiet, but fast (too fast  >:( ) country road and the cats were attracted to the hedgerows running alongside the road - fatal attraction sadly.

Ooooh - Well done - I must get a copy - I wasnt "Purring" back when you last had an article in ;) 

Sounds like the sort of article it would be useful to have to lend to people - sometimes a magazine is less daunting than a computer print off  :tired: :(

Thanks  :thanks: but, sorry to disappoint you, that picture with the marrow plant in - isnt actually my garden! Its funny I flipped open to the pages when I first got the mag, and though ooh didnt my garden look nice - but, hey I don't remember putting that bit of trellis up the fence like that and....oh, hang on, thats not my garden LOL!

Bearing in mind it was over 10 years ago and at a different house to where I am now! I don't have an enclosure now. In fact it must be well over 10 years ago  because notice the complete absence of persians - only George and Harry  lurking in the undergrowth!

Isn't that typical  :evillaugh:

I stand by what I said about the article though, well written, clear and concise and definitely one to lend to any friends who are considering cat-proofing thier garden  :briggin:

(Just spell-checked this post - and it wanted to change cat-proofing to WATER proofing!!!  If only!!!:rofl:)
