And that his slave's friends are taking up a collection to pay the vet bill. And now they'd better get higher quality screens! Joyce |

Joyce I live in a highrise and always fear that Rusty might paw through the screens and fall. I have double windows and open them such that Rusty can't get to the screens. This means that the windows are never wide opened. Good thing I have A/ C for the summer. The winter is too cold here to leave windows opened. Winnie |

That is why I put lattices up in the windows in my old apartment even though they had screens. My coworkers nephew almost lost his bengal when the screen gave out and he dropped two floors. He came home from work to find the window screen busted out. Luckily a girl found him and he was OK. Scary. |

(that's Persia, who will never, ever, live in a high rise). Purrs for Maxim. I'm pretty sure the friends will help pay the vet bills. I'd help if I could but as it is I can't even pay for Persia's annual shots Lucky for me she's an indoor kitty. The publicity for the vet alone ought to cause the vet to at least cut the bill in half. You just can't buy advertising like this. Jill |

This means that the windows are never wide opened. Good thing I have A/ C for the summer. The winter is too cold here to leave windows opened. Winnie There's only a brief period of time here (spring and fall) when it's comfortable enough to open the windows and when that's the case I'm usually sitting out on the patio and Persia is in her kitty walk. Of course I don't live in a high rise. I have a major fear of heights; I'd never live in a high rise with a balcony. The highest off the ground in an apartment I've ever gotten is the 2nd floor. But I don't trust my window screens. I put a baby gate over the screen door to the patio and that works fine (even if it does look really strange). I've thought about duct-taping the screens to the frame. Also not attractive but hey, duct tape works for everything (or so they tell me) and it's not a permanent fixture. Jill |
