We've had Trix for almost three weeks now and it started on day two - jumping on the dining room table. We have been diligent about removing her and saying "No Table" when put her back on the floor. But not only is she determined, but she is almost sarcastic about it. She will jump up and sit dead center with her head held high. And while we walk toward her, she looks right into our eyes as if to say "Go ahead, you'll NEVER defeat me!."
Am I just expecting too much too soon? It has only been three weeks, but I kind of thought by now she would at least be jumping off the table when she saw us coming, and now she is starting to head for the kitchen counters too. She has free run of everywhere else in the apt, but I have a delicate table cloth I like to keep on the table and I prepare food on the counters - so I want to keep them kitty free.
Any advice is welcome.
