They have a gate advertised at Aldi that looks like she wouldn't be able to jump over it. It's retractable, 40" tall and sleek plastic. Tomorrow I'm going to see if they still have them. If so I'll move her back to the den and keep her restrained so that she won't be able to isolate herself. That might help her socialize. Hopefully, anyway.

Would she be able to climb it? SlimJimmy Oct 2022 #14

It's a solid plastic so nothing to grip with her claws, and at 40" it might be a challenge to jump Siwsan Oct 2022 #15
