A taste of freedom



Well, Miss Belly Fringe has a new nickname - Miss Escape Artist. After I fixed the screen, she ripped it opened!


So I went to Lowe's and bought a screen door kick plate and threaded it through the security bars. Voila I thought. She won't be able to move this.


Wrong!!


When I woke up from my retirement nap, she had moved the kick plate and was gone!


So then, I secured it with twist ties. Now she can't get out and sits in front of the door and howls. Ah, that taste of freedom! But at least she has been able to find her way back. That is the good news.
Not pretty, but it is working. Look closely and you can see the twist ties.
Who said necessity is the mother of invention!
