Question:

does anyone have any idea where one could buy (or use as) a little "gate" of some sorts? something to stop the ratties from going in the kitchen.
I've stopped freaking out over letting them in the dining room because there aren't really many places for them to hide in there but the kitchen is starting to become a problem. we have a rule of not letting them in there because we don't want them to hide behind the oven or the fridge but it has happened twice already. Garbo seems to love the kitchen and thought it was fun to hide behind the fridge/stove and the other day I had to grab her from the cabinet where we keep the pots and pans. not only does this mean that there is more running around after the ladies but it also means that now I have some extra dishes to do :/ rat proof gate needed. any ideas and suggestions are welcome!
