dog door fail
« on: June 11, 2015, 04:25:10 PM »
I think I might have mentioned I was making a dog door with the intention of allowing the dog free access while preventing the cats from getting out but our older cat Cloe has figured it out after a few weeks, She calls the dog to let her out  :doh:
Loki the younger cat who was the main target of the exercise doesnt seem interested in going out anyway so all in all I feel my time was wasted.
Turns out this life c**p is just one big distraction from death but a good one. For the love of god dont give yourself time to think.

These things are never wasted. You've obviously put lots of thought into designing and implementing it, and those ideas will undoubtedly pop up in years to come and make another project easier.

Typical dog, willing to please, typical cat, plotting evil.  :lol:
I love it when a Plan B comes together!
