a crate isn't the same thing as a cage, right?

we don't check on her when she cries at night for the exact reason that you stated, but she's been crying like that for a week now... it's really bad.

i wouldn't mind putting her in a crate in my room, but
1. my room is real small
2. i'm going back to school in about a month
3. what will she do when she needs to go potty?

right now, we keep her in the area near the front door, we fenced it off 'cause there's tile floors there.

she's in there as i type, and she still cries even when she sees me, she wants to be let out! but we're trying to train her so that she'll be okay when there's no one home.

this is really depressing
