I do the same thing when any of the cats or even the dog is too close to the door when I want to go in/out without having them nosing about. Artica thinks an open door means she is going out even if she just went back in. She even goes back out if the door isn't closed fast enough. This works well for me. But if Jax is a smartypants then he may caught on and decide to stay close...let's hope that's not the case. I also sweep my feet & legs through the door before and after I pass and they all tend to stand back for this as they don't want to get bopped on the noodle.
