Hi,
The other day I had the ex-Mother-in-law round for a cup of tea (Dont ask!) She was furious to see my cats laying on my dinner table, and on my worktops. My kitten is in the kitchen (a large kitchen!) at night time, as I dont really want him all over the house at night, he may wake the children up, and Im told its best to confine a kitten to one area. So I told her that I have no idea what he does at night in the kitchen, when Im in bed. (He has free run of the house in the daytime)
I always clean the table and table tops before we eat, or prepare food, and I dont allow my cats their when we are eating or cooking (Although they will try hard to climb up!)
I just wondered whether you think this is classed as a bad habbit? Mummy cat has always done this, and I think it would be hard to get her out of the habit now?
I told her to mind her own business (oops!) and that its not me who locks my cats in the kitchen (Small) ALL DAY.
I love my cats, and treat them as I would my 4 children, but if this is bad, I need to know.
Thanks
