This is what happens when Widget wants to stretch her legs occasionally during her 24-hour nap-fest and finds her exit down the ramp blocked … in this case, by blind Madison. Even though Widget is blind, she knows Madison is there and lying across the bottom step of the ramp. She doesn't want to step on Grandma, who can get a wee bit cranky about such things.
So Widget will sit with her front feet on the top step, her rear end on the chair, and weave back and forth with her head until one of the household staff finally notices her predicament. Then we'll come over to lift her off and set her on the floor. Sometimes she'll just want to wander down the hall to the dog room to see if anything edible is left in the crates, other times she'll want to go outside for a stroll and a pee. But it's not long before she's back in the chair and sleeping again. It's amazing how fast 24 hours can go when you sleep through most of it.
