My cat is approximately nine months old. She is a wonderful companion. Generally she restricts her scratching to her scratching post. However, it seems that whenever she wants my attention (ie, if I'm studying) she will either scratch at my closet doors lightly (so as to make a sound as if someone is running their nails down a chalkboard), dig her nails into my boxspring mattress and pull them out making a "plucking" noise or she'll scratch at the cover of my stereo speakers. Occaisionally she'll jump up on my shelves and begin pulling books down or she'll scratch at the wall.
If I tell her "NO", she will generally stop...until I stop looking at her. If I use a squirt bottle she'll stop...until I stop looking at her.
Does anyone have any suggestions or am I doomed to study according to my cat's timetable?
