Poly managed to jump the gate in her room last night. She left a variety of presents for Mom in Mom’s office, after Mom discovered Poly on Charles’ bed. The disencouragement to going upstairs hasn’t taken it seems. I suspect Poly ended up in Charles’ bed because she can’t get in Corwin’s nor Alice’s and is probably smart enough to not try ours. I don’t know what Mom is going to do, but I suspect she’ll have to get a gate for the stairs and another gate for Poly’s room to put above the bottom one.
We have also been having problems with Poly nipping at the kids. Interestingly, she doesn’t do it if I am watching. If she’s started, I have to disengage her but if she is getting ready I only have to hold up a finger to dissaude her. Her willingness to nip is strongly inversely correlate with whether she thinks I am watching, so at least we have that.
