Our Birman cat Gemma usually enjoys going away in the caravan with us, but she has developed a bad habit. When we have been away and left her home alone in the van, she has started scratching at the security screen door. Unfortunately the mesh seems to be nylon, and she made several holes along the bottom of the door. Ahhh, bad cat!
Look what Gemma did!
After making a few enquiries, we discovered that there is a product call “pet mesh”. Sounded like just the thing, and we arranged for SecureTPlus to call and change the mesh on our caravan screen door.
There was a little hiccough when it was discovered that the pet mesh was thicker that the original and new retaining rubber was required. After a trip back to the workshop to collect it, the job soon got underway.
Adding the new rubber and changing the mesh
It didn’t take too long at all and it was all done. Let’s hope that this pet mesh is the answer to the problem. We are all set now for a three day weekend trip next week.
It’s been a gorgeous sunny winter day today, with snow dusting the tops of the Tararua Ranges behind us. The snow seems to be melting fast but we may get some more in a day or so. Icy winds traveling up from Antarctica bringing freezing temperatures have been forecast over the next few days, starting at the South Island and moving up here onto the North Island. Brr, how cold is it going to get, I wonder?

Naughty Gemma, but you have to forgive them, don’t you. The new screen should do the trick. Our van has a thicker security mesh, which I’m guessing your new one is like. The mountains do look pretty with their coating of snow. Stay warm on your trip next week.
