      Being the big softy that I am, I was wondering how I would keep our lovely but pesky cat out of my shed when it arrived. Shed now up but we had to 'say goodbye' to our cat when he became seriously ill (yet again, and again). Now I long for him to still be with us so he can sleep on a sunny part of the baseboard once more...

      I believe the 'Lidl' or similar cheaper varieties are what the originals used to be like.
