One thing I have learned over my years as a smoker is that we potheads are a pretty imaginative group of people, one thing that most of us share is a sense of ingenuity. That's what I'm looking for today from you my friends. I need help figuring out how to put some sort of door on this cage that I'm building. Something cost effective is of course very important, but even before that comes something that is cat proof. That's the entire reason I am building this to begin with. I have two cats that get into EVERYTHING. My plants especially. The cage will be covered with gardeners fencing, it looks like chicken wire but it's plastic so it's a little easier to manipulate. I haven't decided if i'm going to cover the roof with chicken wire or a piece of plywood when I'm done, but that's really irrelevant unless someone has a door idea that requires some specific type of roof. The wood used are 2X2's and I'm going to add that last horizontal beam, I just ran out of screws so I took the pic mid construction.
I've thought about putting a screen door on it, but those are like 100 bucks and I don't need something so fancy that the cats are no doubt going to tear up. I also plan on putting a DR120 inside this cage pretty soon, so I'd like to be able to use the entire opening for entry/exit. I've also thought about building my own door into the front, but I'm sure that will be the hardest part especially because the wood is all bowed and bent it every direction. The dimensions are 4X4X7.
Perhaps the best thing I can think of is a way to attach the gardeners fencing that will allow me to unfasten it and move the entire thing to the side, like door beads sorta'. But it still gotta be cat proof, I don't want to waste my time and money on the most amazing cat nip the world has known.
Any idea's? Suggestions? Links? I'm wide open and counting on you guys and gals,... thanks for your time!
