I was typing yesterday's post and my eye caught a flicker of movement on the floor. Turning I found Pester sitting looking back at me so very innocently. Man! She beat me! I had made all kinds of changes to foil her too. Well, that failed too. First time was my fault, I left the sliding part of the door a bit open enough Pester could do the 'back walk' and get up and in. So just keeping the door fully open will fix that, but on the other door the board is tall enough, braced enough but is made of that big chip stuff plywood is sometimes made of. Pester managed to pry back enough chips to get a claw hold and climb up! I came into the room to find her just negotiating the balance act on the top. So I have replaced that with smooth particle board. Will have to saw one end of it to size this morning and that will be finished. Phew! Yes, they are so smart, the ingenuity is totally amazing! So attempt number 9 gets the Pester test today. Peekaboo hasn't begun to figure these things out but when she does, hmmmmmmmm . Rev.
