To get Skye to come in the house in the evening and stay a bit longer than half a minute, we are giving her two lick mats: one with vegan cheese cream (her new favorite spread) and one with peanut butter.
It takes her about 10 minutes to finish them both. During that time, she should not only associate being in the living room after dark as a good thing, but the act of licking releases dopamine that calms her down.
