Where is the water bottle Linda. They say you should squirt him with it for doing things like that.

Cuddles is a sweet handful Merrin.

Actually I have a water bottle by my computer Sandra. I squirt him when he tries to climb up the back of my chair (but only because he digs his nails in for balance.

LOL Pets can be like spoiled children sometimes. Contrary to popular belief, cats can be trained to not do that. Well....most of them can. Sometimes you run into one that just won't give up. The best you can do is have them sit at your feet and stare up at you. ;-)

That's one pampered pet. It's almost impossible to say no to a kitten. You can't possible discipline such a sweet face.

Itty is now 3 months old. She is everywhere. I have a spray bottle that I need only shake at her now and she gets the hint!

I tried the spray bottle but it really did not work. Maybe because I did not like spraying my cat

Cats are so much fun and they can be so cute that sometimes it is hard to get mad at them even when they are doing something they shouldn't.

We have a word for that--when our guys climb up on the table and we have to keep bringing them down, we say that we're playing "elevator".

Its easier to shut the cat in a bedroom or the bathroom while you eat (but not as much fun--hehe).

He's about as sweet as a kitten can be (except when he decides to bite). He's been curled up in my lap for the last few hours.

most furry pets are our children and get away with just about everything.

When I am home alone my Goofy Cat lays on the table next to my plate and watches me eat. But when my husband is home he knows he is not allowed on the table so he innocently lays on the kitchen floor and pretends he never gets up on the table. Who says they are dumb animals!

We really don't mind if Cuddles sits on the table. We would just prefer that he wait until we finish eating to lick the plates.

I know the feeling I do the same with mine, cats and kid

Hi Carol-Welcome back! My cats don't get table food, so they really don't want to eat from my plate. It is just that cats are SO curious! If I show them what I am eating, they usually check it out and then walk off, satisfied I am not holding out on them.
