I'm pretty sure cats go through the Terrible Twos too. Or Terrible Ones. Something like that.
Annie's in it bad right now. It's a good thing she's cute because she is really getting on my last nerve!
She jumps on top of the refrigerator and bats off the magnets on the fridge door.
Of course, she chooses to bat off a butterfly magnet that belonged to my mother, and the magnet broke off of it. (It's fixable, if I could find the magnet - at least the butterfly itself didn't break!)
She managed to open the linen closet last night and jostled all of the towels, sheets and extra blankets (on different shelves, mind you) out of place, unfolded, and so the door wouldn't close again. Then used those as a ramp to jump up on top of the door that wouldn't close.
She backtalks. I mean, if I had backtalked to my parents the way she does I would have been smacked into next week. (Not really, just an expression, but I sure wouldn't have gotten away with it!) If she gets onto one of the three places she's not supposed to in the house and gets caught, she will give us a look like "WHAT????" and complain loudly that we should just let her do what she wants.
It's not that difficult - we're not ogres about where she's not supposed to be - not on the kitchen counters, the table, and the TV console. That's it. The other four have figured this out without a problem.
She is acting like a toddler just pushing the limits to see what she can get away with. Within the last 1/2 hour she has jumped up on top of the bedroom door and climbed up on top of the ladder (that needs to be put away). It's like she's trying to get in trouble!
Oh, it's a good thing she's really cute!
