And we thought they were dumb...

My cats figured out how to open doors last week. Well, the dumb one did.*

When PJO got home the other day, Furious George had opened the door to the nursery, jumped into the crib and was playing with the mobile. Every other door in our apartment was also open. He really loves playing in the closet, and drinking out of the toilet, so the closet and bathroom doors were really holding him back.

Instead of child-proofing our apartment in a year or so, looks like we'll be cat-proofing our apartment in the next few months. Round door knobs it is!

* we're not sure if he is the dumb one of the two cats, or if he's so smart that he makes Sweet Pea (the smart one) do his bidding while he sits back and eats and cuddles with us. The two of them kind of remind me of Pinky and the Brain...we're just trying to figure out which one is which.

Landon figured out our door handles pretty quick, so a switch to knobs will probably serve you well in the long run. I usually close the door of our bathroom, put some toys on the ground, and take my shower while he plays, but the other day I looked around after shampooing my hair and he was gone! I turned off the water, threw on a towel, and found him playing with the front door handle. Luckily it was locked so there was no way he was opening it, but still... it reminded me that a walking toddler is a whole new world!
