Materials for indoor tracking box:
# Wooden box - 4' square is ideal, but smaller will work for cats
# If you build a box you need lumber:
- 4' long, 10" wide and 1" thick
- 2' long, 10" wide and 1" thick
- nails or brackets to hold the wood together
# Sand - enough to fill the box 8" deep *
# Rake or kitty litter scoop to stir the sand
# Piece of wood to smooth out the sand
# Sheet of plastic to line inside of box
# Covering to protect floor under the box
# Bait **

3. Build the box
4. Put plastic liner along bottom
5. Put stakes on either end of the box
6. Tie wire or twine to stakes so it hangs over the box

Nor are these beauty secrets always the privilege of the rich, but transcend class and even, in these equal-opportunity modern times, transcend gender.And while it's true that Westerners of both sexes sometimes go to extremes to maintain their physical appea

This is largely because hard drives themselves are complex devices and their technological specifics are not generally well known.

* SAND - I used builder sand, which is sold in 50-pound bags and is much cheaper than playground sand. It's packaged, which is easier to work with. It takes a lot of water to moisten playground sand.

NOTE: I'm always looking for ways to improve projects and activities. Contact me with your results or if anything is unclear to you.
