Yet another cat question

[BFG]

I am an even more honest man. No cats make no noise at all.

So true mr. BoD.

I have a matched pair of Holland and Hollands shold you so require...

You can train cats into a routine. I watched my mother do it.

She basically trained the cat to go to bed. The cat has free reign until the late evening, she gets a brush and cuddle and then gets put to bed, then the parents shut up shop and go to bed too. No bother.

A small difference might be is that they had a spare cubby house in the yard. She converted it to a safe cat haven with mesh on the window and door and shuts her in every night. She's got food, scratch post, bed, everything!

Now cat comes in 9:30-10:00 every night to be put to bed, if she's ignored she crys at you.

Short answer was she was persistent and consistent and the routine prevailed. No night time problems!

sounds like the same approach one is suggested to use with kids too...

And it generally works with the kids.......hmmmmm........

Now THAT must be where I'm going wrong.....didn't put a scratch post in the cot.
