Reason for rehoming pet

Sadly, Kia has been trying to escape out the front door. This has been going on since October 2025. We have tried some different options for her but have not been successful. She will slip between people coming in or out of the front door. This has become a very big frustration for us. We have made the very hard decision to see if anyone can put in more time to correct this behavior.

Kind of home pet needs
