Hello
I am new here and need some advice.
I have 3 lovely kitties- Kami, Kisa and Keeba. Both Kami & Keeba really love those little toy fuzzy mice. keeba a bit more. So we end up with a bunch of them and the cats will all lose them for a few weeks and then they will all show up again lol
Well all the mice would disappear except one, this little pink one which was Keebas favorite. I remember once my father in law came over and Kami and Keeba ran off to the bedroom to hide lol Then all of a sudden after maybe 5-10mins Keeba goes running out to the kitchen where we all were, grabs his mouse and runs back into the bedroom with it!! Apparently afraid that my fatherinlaw would steal it lol
Anyways one day the pink mouse does disappear and from how Keeba is acting it went under our stove. So I finally find something small and long enough to reach under there and pull the mouse out. Along with several other mice, balls, other toys, little treasures and trash that the cats must have been hiding under there.
Now though Keeba must think it is a fun game to put all the mice under the stove and then cry for mommy to come get them..only to knock them back under 5 mins later. Sigh.
If I refuse he will try to reach under there himself which causes an ear shattering nails on chalkboard noise of his claws scratching the metal under the stove.
I am at a loss of ideas on what to do. I do not want him knocking them under the stove anymore. It probably isn't even safe to have all of that under the stove. I can't keep him or his toys out of the kitchen. I could only give them the mice when I can supervise but the mice bring them alot of fun when I can't play or watch and it would just lead them to stealing treasures to play with. They love to try and get on top of the fridge and steal my magnets! They remind me of ferrets with how much they love to steal lol
Anyways any ideas??
