HI everyone, hoping that someone can help me. Tia has developed almost a fetish about jumping up on top of the doors in our house. She balances on the top edge and mews loudly to "announce" that she is up there and "look at ME!". I have tried scolding her and ignoring her, neither of which seems to work. I think it is a combination of trying to get my attention and also to gloat at Jasper since he is too big to try it but I am afraid she will get hurt. Anyone have any ideas on how to stop this behavior? I am afraid to use a squirt bottle as I don't WANT her to try and jump to the floor. She jumps from the top perch of the cat tree to the front door top and from a desk to the bedroom door top and yesterday I caught her trying to "position" the bathroom door so she could jump on top of THAT one from the counter top!
I can't move the countertops and the furniture isn't that close to the doortops but that doesn't stop her. Thanks everyone.
