You could construct a frame out of 2" x 2" that are attached to the corners of the layout and then a 2" x2" board acrossthe top to each corner. Then attach a tarp to the top on each side. To raise the sides up you could use old window blinds hardware. You might also want to attach a 1' x 2' board at the bottom of each side. The bottom board would give it some weight to keep the cats off the tarp an gives the window blinds somewhere to attach without ripping the tarp. <br /> <br />I saw someone use a similar contraption to keep their cats and dogs out their "office area" in a basement.
