The modular fabric skirts 14,16,18 form a perimeter around the basket or cage 2. The modular fabric may be made of a mesh whose holes may vary from 2 to 10mm in size. The skirts may be fire retardant; they may have a wind resistance below 90%. The skirts may include a detachable mid rail fastening (22 figure 2). The bottom of the skirts may be held in contact with the kick plate 10, this fastening may be from magnets.
