I read on one of these forums that you are planning on putting a pond in your outdoor cat enclosure....whether or not you have ever "done" a pond before or not, you are gonna love this!
On your puter, type in ...The Ponders Bible. It will take you to a site about this book by Gosta Lovegren...go to the bottom of the page where you can enter to read more.
This retired gentleman is a hoot....and so knowledgeable!!!
I`ve even emailed him with questions about his book and he told me not to bother to buy his book...that pretty much everything in the book is on the sight. (Can you believe it?!?!)
We rebuilt one of our little ponds this last spring using one of those black rubber cattle tanks and then followed his general directions (adapted it for size by using a Rubbermail wastebasket)for makig the filter system for it. WOW! We had previously struggled with cleaning filters many times over each summer....until this one. Once it was set up we have not had to touch it at all to clean it! WHEW!
I`ve not yet taken the time to learn to post pics on the forums ...but if there is a place I can email you I`d be glad to scan and send you pics of our ponds.
I hope you enjoy his site as much as we have!
Your cats will love their pond! If you want to email me my addy is: [email protected]
