42.904444 N; 88.008586 W | I got a hole right in the middle, about an inch in diameter. I tried to grommet it, but it was too big and didn't hold. I just leave it alone, and it doesn't get any larger.

Gainesville, FL 32607 USA | I've "fixed" several holes, cigarette burns, cuts, etc. I used "Marine Goop", and it works very well. I was careful to smush it up from underneath as well as on top to make sure everything around the hole is covered, even in FLorida sun and heat. Lasted 5 years so far, on 3 different cats.

Long Beach, California | Had a hole starting in a mesh tramp right next to a grommet - took it to a local canvas shop. They sewed in a patch for next to nuthin. Try your local guy for a couple of bucks. They did a square patch and double stitched it all the way around. It's been fine for three years. Good luck -
