Nala is growing up like the rest of the children in the family. She has progressed from gnawing on the furniture to wasting energy and messing up the house. When she wants to go in or out she simply opens the door. We have lever style handles and she can open a door as easily as you or I. Closing the door, or wiping her feet when she comes in from digging in the mud are very low on her priority list, not unlike my other children. I am going to have to change handles back to round knobs and pray she doen’t learn to turn those with her teeth.
