So I came home on Thursday evening after having worked almost 12 hours, and Darrell came home right after me having been gone for about 9 hours. We wandered inside, put things away and started a general just got home regimen. I happened to go into our bathroom for some chapstick when I notice our closet door shut. Then I see the shredded carpet.
Darrell had accidentally pulled the door mostly closed in the morning and Poleeko had been sleeping in there. When Poleeko had tried to get out, he had shut it all the way. So he spent all day locked in the closet.
I spent about an hour cleaning the whole closet up looking for any of his accidents, but luckily, he had held it all day. Unfortunately, he wanted to get out so bad, he shredded about an inch of carpet near the door and the doorjamb. So now we are going to have to replace the carpet in the closet. Fun Fun! I think I would much rather have had to clean up a bunch of messes.
But who can blame him? He was closed up in the closet all day with no food or water when it was almost 90 degrees outside. So now we will have to make sure that we won’t accidentally close him in the closet again.
