Getting into food....
| Thu, 10-21-2004 - 10:03am |
Hi,
My cat Sweetpea that we adopted about a month ago is getting into food on the kitchen counter. I caught her last night tearing up the doughnut box and this AM the box was left open and she was eating a doughnut! She will also try stealing my 3 year olds food if she leaves it sitting on the coffee table. I did not even know cats liked human food! How do I break her of this?
Right now I just shoo her and tell her no that is bad. I do not want to be 'mean' because we are still bonding. Any advice would be wonderful.
Thanks,
Heidi

Hi Heidi.
Thanks all for the advice. Think I will try the coins trick. I am affraid if my 3 year old sees me squirt Sweetpea with a water bottle she will never leave her alone! LOL I know we used to train a dog I had with a news paper and all we had to do was pick up a peice of paper and she was gone, lol So, will show how the can and coin trick works!
Thanks!
