Great idea! Good thing she didn't jump

MIne is actually the wire stuff. She can't chew through it. I actually live on the first floor, but I didn't trust her not to squeeze through the bars & take off running. That's why I did it. Anyway, for those wanting to do it & worried about plastic, I used the wire (got it at Home Deopot) and zip ties.

Thank God she didn't fall off. Otis go through my back gate because there was a gap between the fence post and the gate post. I chicken wired the heck out of any opening throughout my whole fence. I'm so glad you got that taken care of. Good Job, it looks good.

that's a great idea!! i have a walk-around deck around my pool and it always makes me nervous when Sadie sticks her head through the posts - I'm afraid she'll see a squirrel and take off and drop 8 feet to the ground!!!

Miss Penny ,I too had that same problem with Remy and my deck. I also used plastic mesh on the inside of the rails and just staped it to the wood rails
