The cage has a 2' corrugated fiberglass foundation surrounding it. The kennel overlaps that by 6" all the way around, and is bolted through it every other chain link. Underneath that 2' of dirt, there is more chain link, as a floor to the surrounding box, also overlapped underneath and bolted. The perimeter of the cage was filled with 6x6 brick pavers, stacked extra heavily in the corners, before it was back-filled. The top is also chain link, tied with securely every other link like everything else with galvanized wire.
Yes I do live in Florida, and NO I am not an irresponsible pet owner, who would build a flimsy outdoor enclosure to allow my monitor to escape.
Unless she gets her paws on some wire snips, this monitor will never escape this enclosure, period.
