Why can't we do this with Winston?

William - do any of you think he looks like Winston?

This is William in the picture. He is at my Grandparents (mom's parents in CA) house. They have a step from their laundry room to their office and in the office is a gas heater that they keep on. We didn't want William to go near it, so we put up a piece of I don't know what across the doorway so that he could pop his head over.:) It would be nice if we could put Winston in a room with no breakables and maybe some toys and lock him in the room.
