We've had our new kitty for about a month now. She's great, but she's so stubborn! When we start eating she comes a running. She jumps and climbs up our legs or the furniture and tries to get into our plates. I counted the other day and I picked her up and put her on the floor over 50 times in one meal! Another extra "problem" is those little claws trying to climb you over and over.
I've tried feeding her at the same time we eat, but our food must smell much better. She's worse than our two dogs added together.
My husband has suggested putting her in another room and shutting the door while we eat, but that doesn't feel like we're solving the problem, just avoiding it.
Please tell me that if we continue to move her, with a firm NO she'll eventually get the message (I remember doing the same thing with my two year old son when he thought climbing the stairs would be fun).
