the end is not yet

Houdini will not walk into or out of Shokes' room. She must either be carried, have launched herself from the doorway onto his bed, or have launched herself from his bed through the doorway. If she happens to be outside his room and want in, she will sit at the threshold and let out the most plaintive meows I've been privy to for a while. As of yet, we can not figure out a purpose for this neurotic behaviour.
