I'm sure I'm going to eat these words with no small interest rate, but I've got the same thing. At worst I've had to hide the toilet paper (Dishrag went
mad for it, we always reckoned his parents were killed by a rogue looroll)... With my current lot, Jigsaw has to be told not to go up on the counter and we need to keep the lid on the bin so Sweep (that
mad monkey!) doesn't try to be
stealthy whilst knocking over the bin to nose around inside
So, anyway... Aside from them bringing the house down around my ears, they're very well-behaved
A loud NO works for me. Jasmine and Rufus's daddy uses a specific type of loud fingerclicking as well.
That said, I really don't know how I've gotten so lucky... That's (past and present included) 8 cats I've owned and not a single one has ever truly driven me to distraction (Ninja doesn't count as he didn't do anything bad - he just needed to be coaxed out of his shell). Either I'm just oblivious or I'm a hell of a lucky duck!
