When Gaia's been bad, attacking relentlessly, we put her in the bathroom for a while. Today, after I got home from work, gave her fresh food & water and played with her I sat down t the computer and the attacking began! Normally after a play session she might attack, but give up, not this time. I put her in the bathroom for 1.5 hours (with food&water). She's been good for 30 min afterwards now, very good actually. We've tried 10 min, but that doesn't seem to help much. But I don't want to have her in there that long all the time, should I just experiment with time to see the minimum that will work for her?
You could say I have anger issues (thanks dad!) and don't want to get too frustrated and scream at her at the top of my lungs. (not anger management bad, never hurt anyone/thing, just worried about my heart health) Don't get me wrong, I'm the shiest person you'd ever meet, but when something gets on my nerves, and I'm not around strangers I can cuss to high heaven! I just get so frustrated because I think I'm doing something wrong. I get worked up/worried over every little thing in my life.
