Mine is a climber, so x-pen didn't work well. When I couldn't trust her to be good, I'd put her in the kennel.
Somone here told me about clear deoderant keeping them from chewing. Several said thats not good thing, so dunno, but putting the clear deoderant on many things in this kitchen, did deter her from going back to chew in the same spot.
I also got a baby gate and pick out the kitchen for her to stay now when I'm out of the house. I got the type with bars, that she couldn't climb, but also had to put plexiglas on the front of it to keep her from walking inbetween the bars, lol. Seems she's always one step ahead of me!
I have removed all the carpet in the living room and hall. Venus has ruined it. She's also chewed large holes in the lenolium in the kitchen. Both lenolium and carpet was put in back in 2000, so wasn't that old. I hope to order ceramic in the next day or 2. But strange part, she's 10 months old now, and soon as the carpet came up, she quit going on the floor where she'd been going!
I also have baseboards that were just put down in June, she's chewed up. Must not have put enough deoderant on them. |
