Pet Gate

It took a couple of days to find a decent pet gate for our hallway. The first one was on sale in huge piles at the pet store and was made of rickety wood that bit your hands when you tried to open the gate. No good. Returned that one and started to ask around, but the best ones were a bit pricey. Or a sinister red color!

We turned our attention to BabiesRUs and looked at highly-rated baby gates and found the perfect one in white metal for less than 70 dollars. It's been installed and we've been pretty happy with how sturdy it is and how easy it is to open the gate. It also comes with two extensions for versatility. While at the BabiesRUs store, we also got a couple of safety wire covers from the baby-proofing gizmos section. Now our XBox is safer, hah.
