My hubby asked me the other day..."How can I keep ferrieman off the desk?
He keeps getting into everything." I had to laugh...there is NO way to keep
him out of the desk. He climbs it and everything else like it's a jungle
gym in a playground which in a way it is for him. I have learned since
the keyboard is cordless to pick it up and put it up high or he will open
every help file (how he finds that exact key I don't know) and try
recycling everything on us. On the other desks I push the drawers in but
he still manages to get up there. The only things I wish he wouldn't do
is get up on the top shelves because I'm afraid that he will fall. Of
course I haven't been smart enough to figure out how to block these with
anything. :-( I fail at Ferret Blocking 101 MISERABLY! :-( So usually I
watch him like a hawk and when he starts heading for something he shouldn't
I take him away from it. He is VERY stubborn and persistant that's for
sure. He reminds me of a goat. (I have one of those too and she's
stubborn as heck and loves to pick on you too.)
Any ideas on blocking a computer desk would be appreciated. As our room
sits now...he gets up on 1 thing he's up on everything but the worst part
of it is the high shelves over the desk (over the monitor).
