Window Screens
Our house came without window screens. I realize that most of the world makes it without window screens, or even the option of A/C, but I was really getting tired of the situation. After pricing out (expensive) relplacement screens, we found a nifty screen making kit at Wal-Mart. Ben crafted perfect-fitting screens for each window in the house, installing the last one yesterday afternoon. We were in heaven! There was a light rain outside, and the breeze was refreshing and bug-free. Last night, perhaps around 11, when we were falling asleep in our newly ventilated bedroom, we heard furious scratching UP THE SIDE OF OUR HOUSE and clawing onto the screen in our bedroom. The CAT, whom we do not officially own, but who lives on our property, had torn a hole in the 6-hour old screen in an effort to socialize. Maybe this is why there were no screens on any of the windows. Ugh.

It sounds like you need a dog.

DOH!! That has got to be frustrating! Our cat, Ruby clawed a hole in our screen door when she wanted to come in the house once. Now every time she wants to come in, she claws it bigger and bigger. Now half of the entire screen door is lacking screen. We always keep the door open to let the breeze in, but the bugs get in now too. I sympathize with you.
Wow - he didn't waste any time... Poor unfortunate, intelligent and unusually extraverted cat. Poor screen. :-)
