6 month old kittens really try your patience Most do grow out of the bad behavior as long as you keep up with the firm NOs and removing the cat from the stove, etc. Is this your only cat? Some cats get frustrated and bored without a friend so they seek out things to do knowing they'll get a reaction from you. Something to consider if another cat is doable for you.
Does the stove have burners or is it flat? The flat ones are more dangerous IMO because cats just see it as part of the counter. Any stove is dangerous when hot, even for a good while after it's been used, so definitely keep the cat away from the stove until it's cool to the touch. I wonder if burned on food stuck to the burners attract some cats?
