I know you posted this a while ago but I just read it and I wanted to say that I'm so happy ppl like you exist. You're such a kind soul. You inspire with your energy, commitment, and tireless efforts.
thanks!
Dare I say it.....it seems to have worked! Button hasn't been able to climb out since we finished it.
We've also built an outdoor climbing tree from an old table and some recycled fence posts. They really love this.
how do you keep your cats from climbing from the cat tree onto a real tree and from there to other trees and then outside?
Freya, who used to be part of the colony, moved to join another colony and then came back again, has settled in really well. I though we might have problems as she'd been gone for 10 months, but the others just sniffed her and went "Oh, your back". She's now joined the huddle that pushes me out of bed every morning.
Happy, our latest addition, is still quiet shy around the others, so she has her own private corner of the enclosure.
Some of the rest of the gang.
Button Moon.
Chicken
this one reminds me of Carpet and what color is HER fur these days?
Forest Cat, getting fluffy again after his haircut.

Heidi, showing off her double chin.
Sadie.
Twinkle.
Marley. the wildest of the wild.
Did the boy who was hanging around outside the fence and attracting all the girls ever come inside to stay?
How many are in your colony now? They sure are a lucky bunch.
I was wondering about that feline Casanova too and if he was still hanging around
. I wonder if Marley has Siamese in him he is slightly cross eyed!Hello.
I thought it was time for another update. We've been here for just over a year now.
The fence has gone through several modifications. It started of with just a short over hanging part. Button Moon soon managed to get over this, so I tried extending the netting and supporting it with gardening wire, as in the second picture. No good, he just hung on it until the wire gave and hauled himself over the top. So next we tried adding longer wooden arms and supporting beams to keep the net up.

There have been other escape attempts though......
