Reply to comment by Electrical-Act-7170 in I don’t have a cat. But this little ball of fluff managed to cut open a screen on our porch during Hurricane Ian. So now I have a cat. by Kwhean

We’ve talked about doing this. I’m not sure how to install one without it looking completely out of place. I’m also worried that she won’t use it and will instead shred the screen again if I replace it.

Cats can learn how to do things like go through a flap.

My cats know their names, they come when they're called & one of them fetches.

Could you perhaps hide it behind a bush? You appear to have room enough to plant one, maybe.

It's pretty easy to fix/replace a screen. You can even patch it if you like. For replacement you just need new screen, a tool that costs less than $5 plus the spline. They sell pre-cut screen at hardware stores.
