Why is it that no matter how many times a cat does the same thing, and no matter how many times you "discipline" the cat for it, he/she just doesn't learn that the behavior is bad?
For example, we have two cats that are about 8 months old. Every night, they either start jumping on the bed and attacking the comforter, or they climb under the sheets and attack my feet (playfully, of course). Every night, I have to pull them off the bed and lock them up in their own room so I can sleep. As long as they keep the playing on the bed to a minimum, they don't get locked up. You'd think they'd figure it out.
Also, they keep jumping up on counters. One of them keeps sticking her paws in the food disposal in an effort to pull stuff out. I take them off the counter or spray them with a water bottle. No matter how many times I take them off the counter or squirt them, they are right back up there a few minutes later.
