… and am making my balconies even uglier than they were before.

But it’s all in the name of kitteh protection. Livia from the cat shelter warned me that the (ugly) green plastic mesh I had going across the balcony railings wasn’t going to be enough protection for Loki, and I can see her point. He’s still a bit small to jump up that high, but it won’t be long before he can and I don’t want curiosity – or a stray pigeon – to cause him to inadvertently leap to his death.

So I have attached a second piece of mesh that goes from the top of the railing to the wall at a 45º angle, which ought to do the trick. Am now waiting for the owners of newly opened posh hotel next door to complain…
