I need help with an issue with Bastet.

I got very ill a few months ago (blood clot in my leg that nearly killed me). Ever since then Bastet has never left my side. While this is lovely she does get underfoot quite a bit especially in the kitchen. She now howls at the bathroom door and scratches it when I am trying to shower. I live in a rental so I don't want her damaging anything but it would be nice occasionally having a shower without her watching me (gets a bit weird when she starts licking the water off my legs ...)

I know she is very protective of me but this is a little on the insane side. Any suggestions?
