Well Teresa with all the knowledge said to keep pushing cos gradually the carpet would lift and hopefully not tear cos I had a heavy bookcase holding records, you know the vinyal LPS lol, about 200 of em. Luckily it was only one level and eventually I got enough room to get a foot in to push it, which then gave enough room to move door open more as carpet lifted.
All the time of course i had a pair of birmans trying to esacape!
It took a long time to get the space big enough for me to squeeze through and then I put every thing back and something over the carpet under the door and thought I was safe from being locked out again!
But no Franta managed to repeat his escapade and I had to repeat my breakin and entering cos trouble was I am double glazed at the front and the bay only has a stupid little window at the top, and of course even if it had been big enough it was locked.
Then I put the hardboard down had to listen to him scratching it.
I have no idea what I would have done if I hadnt managed to get in and T was trying to calm me down cos was in a real panic. It was just luck really that I managed to move the shelf and get in but I reckon the only other way would have been to try and cut the carpet and destroy it.
I am afraid the birmans havent changed since they arrived and are still troublemakers and they look like butter wouldnt melt in their mouths, the monsters.
They plot and plan and yell and howl if they dont get their own way and currently Franta is terrorizing Misa and Sasa and he tries to stop me doing anything unless he is on my lap, he follows me around and I cant even hide in the greenhouse cos he comes out to check if I am in there!
Ducha rushes onto my bed when i get into it and will sleep on top of my head cos he knows that makes me move, when I turn over he rushes around to be on the side I am facing and he has just started to push me with his head about 0630 every morning, not for him to get up you understand, but to get me out of bed so he can have it all!!
