I made little butterfly hatcheries so I can bring my little cats in and watch them grown and change into b'flies. Here's how I did it: http://davesgarden.com/t/369259/

You can use an old fish aquarium if you have one and put a mesh screen on top.

I've only ever had one cat escape from my hatcheries, a black swallowtail. Boy, was he tough to find! He climbed on one of my houseplants and I had to cut part of the plant off and pin it to the top of the hatchery. Here he is on the plant getting ready to go into chrysalis
