The cat is very fast and will outrun anyone to get to a barely open door. My
daughter has to keep the door open to hear the baby (he is less than two
months old) who is in an on-demand breast feeding schedule. It is best to
train the cat.

The cat, by the way, is an outside cat. She goes in and out whenever the
outside doors get open. She does not get terrified easily at almost anything.
