From lemon grass to Frankenstein: Saving my lemongrass from my cats🌱

**Welcome to a new post, dear Hiver!** *Lord, it's me again, your bravest warrior in this battle of having plants and cats.* Yesterday I went out to the garden as usual and found my lemongrass plant almost leafless.   And I just wondered when they did all this if I always try to be on top of things. So I decided to take action to solve this problem. And what came to my mind was to create a strange Frankenstein. Yes, just as you read, it's strange, it's unusual, but we have to find a solution to this so we can all be happy. Although they've recommended catnip to me on the internet, right now I can't go over my budget, or else everything would end in disaster. So I took the plastic mesh Mom bought for the window. I had already used the part that corresponded to the window.  I went to look for some long tree sticks in the yard, the longest ones I could find.  I grabbed the scissors, thread, and needle (I don't know how the thread and needle ended up in this sentence, but it was the solution of the day). I also asked my sister to help me a little with it. Especially by recording the process for YouTube (if you don't follow me yet, you can support me; that will help me grow and will be a great asset to my business later on). She also helped me place the mesh. https://youtube.com/shorts/xUdrUpaGWm4?si=X3CXg3Hlz84fxQE6 However, let's move on to the first step... I took the long sticks and stuck them in using the soil from the pot. This should act as an internal support for the mesh.  ||| |-|-| I don't put it outside because it wouldn't be useful; the cats would climb up, and I don't want that. I used a hammer on some of them; with this, I was able to get them to sink in enough to stay put and not move. Then I put the mesh on with my sister's help. She held it while I sewed it with the needle and thread.  Now that I think about it, I should have used wire to secure it, but I'll see how I can create a more durable option.  **As you'll see, it really is Frankenstein himself** It's weird; it looks odd and not very pretty in the garden. But hey, it'll be temporary to help the plant survive. My intention is for it to recover, to be lush and strong. With that, I'll be able to have my plant. Which was very difficult for me because I couldn't get one until someone gave it to me. So I have to take care of it no matter what; it's the only one I have, and it's difficult for me to get a new one. **In case you have any questions** I can water the plant even with this mesh; it allows light and water to pass through perfectly, so it wouldn't suffer. I think it suffers more from cat attacks, and I really hope this mesh helps me recover. The process will take a while, like everything involving plants, but I think it'll be safer because I've been watching it during the day and haven't seen any cats approaching it. Perhaps this is a good sign. So wish me luck. ---
