Thank you for the ideas!

I really like the Playskool idea. I'll be searching resale shops this week end!

I also like the rope-wrapped pole idea. That would probably work, too.

I may expand on the box idea by making a couple from wood or plastic so they last longer.

My granddaughter has a small plastic house that she has outgrown. I'm gonna swipe it and see if there's room for it.

The tire idea would be good if I could be sure it wouldn't hold rain water. Could I hang it from a rafter and put a lot of holes in it? Would they like a swing?

Over the week end, I will be putting the shade cloth up and moving anything in that I can. Two of the cats are going to be easy to keep in the area but Shai, the feral, will be a challenge!

I will be posting pictures as soon as I can. Mondays at the office are usually busy, but I'll try to get something posted by Tuesday night.

Keep those ideas coming.
