imapigeon,
Sorry, you'd have to borrow me too! Spirit is a good dog, but I've been teaching him not to chase the cats. He is getting much better and doesn't do it very much. Mostly the cats just stand their ground and he gets bored and goes and chases the next leaf that blows by. LOL!
I usually use an old birdcage, without the bottom, but they seem to have disappeared. Now I pen up the pup when I have new plants to put in the ground. He can't help it. He's had to be left alone or in quaranteen too much. Doesn't stop them dogs from digging or laying down on my flowers even though DH's lawn is just across the sidewalk. Critters will be critters.
I'm just grateful that it is one very tenacious plant (Pride of Barbados). If it survives this summer, I probably won't worry much about it ever again.
I've been catching and neutering or spaying all the stray or feral cats around here. Only one left that I know of.
Don't blame you for raising your food in raised containers.
Here's a photo of one who has almost died a couple of times now.
