For the cat/dog problem. We solved it by DH making a half door, sometimes called a Dutch door, out of pegboard. The doggie can look through the holes and see me. The cat jumps over the sill and can come in the room. If making one from scratch sounds too intimidating, cut a hollow door in half and place a shelf on top for kitty to perch. It would already be prepared for the hinges. It really works for us.

Miss Teddi would be found hanging by her claws on that screendoor :-)

Which reminds me - I need to re-screen the patio door AGAIN!

Looks good to me! I have also heard of people exchanging their babies/kids regular room doors with a screen door to keep the pets out while kids were sleeping & then parents could still hear kids.

Blu cries, "MAAAAA"! So, I go out and give him some hugs :) - If I am not ironing or pinning, he sleeps on his window sill bed in the quilting room.
