Please be nice, I am fully aware that I am a total cat ignoramus.
We have a young (6mo?) cat who is very sweet, but has a few annoying habits. The main ones are that she
- won't leave us alone when we're eating
- gets on the kitchen work surfaces (HATE this)
- climbs all over me/the computer when I'm working at my desk.
We've tried saying no and chucking her off laps/surfaces etc. but nothing seems to be getting through so far. Is there any way to teach a cat to stop doing things, or should we just accept that our cat is a bit dim cats are totally untrainable?
