cat cartoon
I do not believe in declawing cats (see previous post), but this cracked me up.
I subscribe to daily cartoons about pets from newyorker.com, in case you didn't guess already.
Perhaps we could revise this to read: "I've put Bitter Apple everywhere, but she's still impossible." Bitter Apple for dogs as well as cats. When Cooper was a puppy, I repeatedly smeared Bitter Apple on the baseboards and bottoms of cabinets near the kitchen floor, so he wouldn't try to chew them. I had to reapply it often (I don't know if they had the spray then; it was a gel or just a liquid, I think). I would also redirect him to toys and bones. He grew up to chew the "right" things. However, when we moved out of that first rental house, I did have to buy shelf paper with a woodgrain design on it to replace same that he did manage to chew up on the bottoms of the cupboards, before I started using Bitter Apple. But the point, I guess, is that he didn't make it all the way to chewing the cupboards themselves. And he made it to adulthood with claws and teeth )and lovely ones, at that).
