It's not okay to let something get itself trapped.
Dan works in a home office and has a pet cat Ginger.
Dan wants to have his pet around for company while he works.
Dan leaves the door open a crack so ginger can come and go as she pleases.
Dan closes the room door when she enters and wont let her out.
Ginger enters the room more often and Dan can spend more time with her.
Ginger meows excessively when trapped and one day makes a mess in the room that Dan has to clean.
