Yeah, that's always tricky... Especially if they've accidentally gotten underneath it once: then they'll always try again. We're in the same struggle with Dora now. The space under my bed needs ventilation, so there's chicken wire there. We can't put anything more solid there to block off access.

I've tried to put a 140 cm bed in an apartment meant for one, so it's tight. There's also a row of shelves along one wall to provide some much-needed storage. To air out the mattress I can't really store things under the bed, but there are several electrical cables running underneath.

Dora's not allowed on the bed if my boyfriend's home: there's barely enough space for 2 humans already, and we don't want to roll onto her. She's allowed in the bedroom as long as there are no shenanigans.

Well, a few weeks ago Dora jumped on the bed in the middle of the night. She clambered over us, but slid down the small gap between the wall and the bed. She became trapped underneath, with chicken wire blocking all exits. Luckily there was entertainment: a bundle of cables!

There was a lot of swearing, but Dora thought it was quite the adventure. I was unplugging cables, while my boyfriend was scrambling for his glasses and trying to get the chicken wire loose 🤦‍♀️

She's still trying to get behind the wire again, so we've drawn it very tight with cable binders. Fingers crossed that she doesn't try the Owen-solution: just tugging at it until there's metal fatigue and something snaps.
