Reading about how many animals are crated makes me so sad. I just think of it as kitty or puppy jail for them :( It's true, pets really are so trainable! As I mentioned upthread my cat is so freaking clever and learned pretty easily: mommy on the bed = yay, we can cuddle! Mommy on the bed talking to the computer = no, we can Not cuddle!

I think having a pet friendly setup helped me teach him to stay off cam. The bed I cam on is pushed against the wall and sits on the ground so he can't get behind or under it without me noticing. When he would walk over to the side of the bed and look as though he was going to hop on I'd reach my arm out and put my palm to his forehead to prevent him from coming any closer. never even needed to log out to do that and effectively keep him out of view. He'd try to duck around me put I'd just keep my arm stretched out and block his forehead every time he'd get within a foot of the bed or my equipment. It didn't take him long at all to figure out the radius that's off limits while mommy is working.

You should see how one of my dogs jumps in her crate, whenever I tell her to. Even when I leave the door open, she still chooses to be in the crate. She loves it in there!

I use a baby gate to keep my dog in the kitchen while I cam. He's a chihuahua and if I brought him in the room with me he would try to stay right up under me the whole time.
I tried the crate but he would look at me and whine so pitifully that I gave it away.

I have a *Labrador* puppy, she usually fell asleep, or just playing with her toys in the room, while i working.
I usually go for a walk with her before starting, than she calm for 4 hours, than we go walk again, play a little, feed time, and she sleep. :D
I teached her the rules, and she usually in a nice,calm state at home.
