Update - The times we've been able to contain Raven in the back of the house, she took out her frustration on our woodwork. Yes, she actually chewed the baseboard in two different places. So she definitely does have separation anxiety.
But allowing her in the living/dining areas with a potty pad keeps her from getting destructive. So, our "solution" has been to place the taller ex-pen out on the porch in front of the stairs. The rest of the porch is enclosed by railings. This allows us (and our dog walker) to open the front door without risk of her darting out to the street. Not a "training" solution, but it will keep her safe. We've updated her profile to include information that she has separation anxiety and will look for a home where someone can be with her most of the time. |
