10 years would be nice, depends on the cats though and if they keep climbing on top of it. Maybe patching it up with that polytunnel tape extends its lifespan.
The repair tape certainly helps as it stops little holes tearing into much larger one. It also depends on what material the sheet is made from, vinyl splits much easier than PO in cold conditions. You can also keep a hose nearby and once the cats associate getting a shower when they are up there it will temper their enthusiasm for climbing on top of your tunnels

We clean our polytunnels by tying string to each end of an old sheet and then with one person on either side of the tunnel you pull the sheet back and forth gradually dragging it down the length of the tunnel. It helps if it's raining or you use a hose to wet down the tunnel and algae.

Oh thats an awesome idea, my old house is only 2 years old and no dirt as yet but will enlist the wife for that job!
It's that time of year again, hopefully we don't loose as many as we did last year but who knows.
I should find a better material for the inner wall to make a nicer curve so they don't squash each other.
So far so good they're all alive, and compared to last year they are spread about in the bedroom section as opposed to huddling up and killing each other so we must be doing something right this time.....for now.
