So true! There are very smart ones out there! My youngest loves to open drawers and cabinets and she knows where the treats are I had to put them in a Tupperware sealed tight container because she would tear through the cabinet and drawers looking for them then eat the whole bag which made her sick! She still does this but has not figure out how to open the container thank goodness! She just scoots it around and then gets all huffy with me. It's like having a two year running around who can reach high places.
My oldest will come when I point my finger down and call her name but my youngest looks at me with her evil eyes and mentally gives me the finger.
Then when I stop calling her and pretend do something she comes and jumps in my lap. So defiant.
My oldest will plot her huge hiney down on hubby's lap and refuse to budge. Dig claws in and all. (those two are comical to watch.) They have a love/hate relationship. Her favorite thing to do is annoy daddy when he comes home!
She gets on the arm of his recliner and they fight for space and she eventually wins and lays in his lap. She's 11 years old and weighs 14 pounds.
then the youngest gets jealous and takes the other side and poor hubby he is not a cat lover at all. *snicker*
I have learn I can yell no and say no with command in my voice but unless I act like I am going to get up and do something the cats act like they are deaf.
We use the spray bottle method with our youngest and she hates it so it works sometimes but my oldest will come running and open her mouth for a drink.
My cats so own me! Automatic Feeder, Check, Water Pet Fountain, Check, Automatic Litter box, Check, New Toys every time I go shopping, check,
Okay enough about my babies before you think I've lost it.
