and we had cats when we lived in St. Petersburg, FL years ago. We had a really nice Florida room, old style with louver windows. We went to bed one night and heard all this catawalling on the back fence. My husband got the hose and went out there to scare them off, just doused one of the cats with water, and guess who it was? Our beloved Bandit (who looked at my husband like he was nuts), and who had apparently been enticed to come out to play, and went right through the screen! There was a nice big slit in the screens, and I would never have just put him out in our fenced yard -- blink an eye and he would have been over the fence, as he almost proved that night.
