I think cable tidy is the best for the job for mutliple wires i.e. behind the t.v, depending on how much wire you have to cover, and how much protection they need you could use something like this http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?i...ev=/images?q=cable+protection&um=1&hl=en&sa=N
or this

As to gates, you could try freecycle or gumtree, car boots.
Im just using a panel of one of the runs, as I know Sophie is not stopping premenantly in there
alternatively there are pet gates
this one would be great for buns, although a little short I think

I use the ikea stuff, but then I got really annoyed with it round my desk, and used some spare NIC grids to section off the back of my desk, and everything is safely out of reach, and those that come out are covered!
As for baby gates, I got the cheapest one I could possibly get (the dog ones are over priced baby ones :lol
and while Ivy was tiny I had card taped over the gaps, but now he can't get through the bars, so it's just the gate!! It's fantastic!
