Pippa is the friendliest cat I've ever met. Also possibly the most energetic. Her human had already installed a window box for her kitties, but Pippa was already pushing boundaries and we needed to find a way to keep her safe...from herself.
Hello, Momo!
Hello, Pippa!
The area outside the human's entrance door needed to be enclosed, as Pippa's capabilities grew.
Nice human-scale door to the back.
Initially it was thought that this was high enough....
...we decided not to leave things up to Pippa.
The top was enclosed...
...and the end bit, by the shed.
And a tube was added to reverse the pull on the latch, to thwart clever little paws.
Initally, Pippa was happy...
Momo was happy....
Pippa and Momo were happy...and then....
Houston, we have a Pippa.
Mo' Pippa, mo' problems.
Where are you going to go, Pippa?
She was clearly going to keep climbing, so we decided to lean into it.
And added some perches.
And a catwalk.
And a belfry for Her Battiness.
Now everybody's happy up high!
