If you have her in an expen and you put a crate inside that can be an escape route too. I had a little girl that would climb on anything that was in the pen including toys and if that gave her enough height she would launch herself over the pen. |
that's a great way to go!! i love it.

i actually went to the feline section there and they were restocking, so they were all out of cat collars, of course!!! i'm going back this week!! should be a good selection....

The wire pens are more difficult to climb than the plastic honeycomb.
If you decide on a crate, Walmart has wire crates with a divider wall to adjust the interior size.
Good luck! |
i got a wire pen but she seems to have little difficulty with that. i tried a fitted sheet, but b/c my sheet was too big and/or the shape of my ex-pen is really strange, there was too much slack in the sheet to make it work effectively, so i decided to put flat cardboard boxes on top. we'll see if that works.
i'll see what walmart has with the crates, thanks!
also, last night i got her to go in her ex-pen voluntarily!! i did it with treats, which she'll finally eat. she's so smart, she tried to figure out a way to get the treat out of the bag i was holding, and then how to get it from out of the ex-pen without actually going in, but when she couldn't do it she just went on in. her personality is hilarious!!
