LMAO she totally is. Doesn't flush but gets down and stands there yapping at me to flush.

I tried them, and my cat hated them. Applying them was a huge pain (HUGE), and he acted like it hurt. Then, they randomly fall off pretty quick. Voltaire chewed them off. It's much easier to just clip their nails.Originally Posted by angelaiscaustic
With a lot of patience, and redirection (buying lots of cool stuff to scratch on), both of my cats were eventually 100% broken of scratching on my furniture. They destroyed a mattress and box spring, and a couch in the process... but the point is they DID learn. Seriously, this stupid basket-weave type material scratching pad I bought for Terror is his favorite thing ever. I hid it one day to see what he would do, and he was soooooo pissed.
Soda can with pennies. I hear bitter apple works. Someone mentioned a vinegar-water solution.
I've heard the soda can/pennies thing a thousand times over. Also, I recently discovered my cats are terrified of tin foil (the noise).
The only thing this little beast is afraid of is the vacuum. I can't vacuum at 2am (the witching hour in my house). What is this bitter apple you speak of? She's got plenty of scratching posts, she likes leather. The couch and my hamper are completely fucked. We're getting the replacement couch in a week or two. I can't have her fucking it up.I tried them, and my cat hated them. Applying them was a huge pain (HUGE), and he acted like it hurt. Then, they randomly fall off pretty quick.

No more interwebz for u! LOVE THE FUZZY!
Angela:
Tape aluminum foil to the spots they claw on. I have also taken a roll of bubble wrap and wrapped corners. Cats hate noisy and crinkly. DO this while you still have the old stuff and also do it when you first get the new.
Water pistols (buy them online at http://www.amazon.com/Space-Squirt-G...rds=water+guns ) - have them at easy reach in all rooms where they scratch - say PSSSTTTTTTT and squirt them. I have Amazon prime so I get free 2nd day shipping if you want me to ship them to you and you want to paypal me the $7 bucks. LOL
My boy cat got to the point where he would run whenever he saw the water gun.
Now I only have to say PSSSSTTTT if I need him to leave something alone like when Joeycat tries to get up on the counter to get the angelfood cake - the cat has a hard-on for angelfood cake and will headbutt the tupperware cake saver off the counter in hopes it will open and he can have cake.
Anyhoo, my leather couch has zero scratches or rips. I also have rope scratch posts in a couple different places in the house and that emery-cat scratch board, too.
I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to. - Donnie Darko
Alexis & Bella. Damn I hate this cat...but she loves her so much I can't help but allow it to live here. lol
Everyone has such adorable cats! I would love to have a cat someday but I think my dogs would squoosh it without meaning to. They tried to play with a few mice outside and when the dogs tried to 'paw' at it to play with it, I guess the poor mice didnt have very strong necks or backs because they were dead after that. Chevy just sat there still trying to play with it like WTF GET UPPPPPP I WANNA PLAYYYYY
I don't sell crack, I'm a prostitute.
Bunnnnny.
I made the stupid mistake of watching a youtube of someone memorializing their dog and I now I am a blubbering mess at my desk.

So we have an indoor cat that we're trying to take out on a leash but whenever we try to get her to walk she just falls to the ground and gets dragged. How do we get her to walk??
umm she's a cat. This needs to be her idea.But if you insist on trying...
Tie a very light string (thread even) on her collar. Let her drag it around. Every day or so, put a little heavier string on in place of the one she has chewed off. Eventually, let her chew off a light leash or two. Once she is finally not chewing off the leashes, you can try holding the end of the leash and following her where she goes. Possibly, one day she might follow you, especially if you have an open can of cat food or her dish.

We had a cat that we took in from living outside (like all of my cats minus one). Months after being inside we tried doing the leash thing...he laid flat on the ground and growled when we tried to pick him up to get him back in. I never tried again after that. But good luck!
Why are you trying to walk an indoor cat?
My parents cat is an indoor cat. My dad bought a leash because the cat is desperate to go outside but once he gets out there he acts all retarded and can't be trusted. He used the leash on the cat once but the cat went insane. Now if you even show him the leash all hell breaks loose and he turns into psycho cat.
We let our indoor cats in the backyard, since we knew we could catch them before they got over the fence. They are tubby, declawed it would take a minute. Anyway they flip out on the grass, they absolutely hate it. They walk weird or just freeze. They have since stopped trying to go out the door. They decided outside sucks.
I had a cat that desperately wanted to go outside... she'd sneak out under the dog, or she'd push a screen out, or, or or
Then when the idiot feline got out she'd freak and there she'd be hanging on a screen, or up on the porch in a frenzy and you'd just about lose an arm trying to get her back in the house.
Fun times.

and cats are supposed to be intelligent lol
Our cat, Jasper, pleads to go outside. He's allowed in to the back garden and has been taught to go no further. He has to be supervised the entire time he's in the garden. Every so often he'll look at you, meow and then make a bolt for the garden wall. My parents tried letting him off on his own but he has no common sense. Every time he goes missing for hours and we have to send out a search party. He's usually then found sitting in an alleyway crying because he appears to be lost or trying to play with the neighbour's giant cat-eating dog.
They can't leave any windows or doors open because Jasper takes any opportunity to make a run for it. He loves eating the food we have for our koi carp so dad has him trained to behave. If he doesn't try to escape whilst playing in the garden and comes back in of his own free will, he's allowed some fish food. The cat is demented.
My cats let themselves in and out through the dog door. They love it outside. Hopekitty loves to sunbathe on the patio.
We did have to lock the dog door down once as punishment because they were bringing 'friends' inside to torture, kill and upon occasion release. ::shudder::
Yes, my cats were being paid by the neighborhood mice to get them "across the border". My cats were Mouse Mules!!
All joking aside, it took 2 weeks to rid my house of mouse. Twice they put them into the potty. Twice I went to go potty and almost sat on a potty where a mouse was doing the backstroke.
I watch them like a hawk when they come inside - so far, no mice.

Cats are stupid.
Most lovable dumbass ever, film noir Charlie:
Cat's are funny! I love that his name is Jasper. I like that name and it is quite befitting of a cat!
Mouse Mules for the win! I had a cat that used to bring me live gifts too. She once brought a baby crow in that was almost as big as her.
"All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up"Cats are stupid.
