How on earth did you manage to get out of the harness?!?! <br /><br />From the mum:<br /><br />Is it possible to use a seperate door for Bibi's excursions and when you go outside for any other reason like Siena and Chilli suggested?

The cats, however respond well to a spray bottle of water. It may sound cruel, but I taught them all as kittens that a squirt of water and a mouth noise (I think sounds like a mad squirrel or parakeete's squawk "CH-CH-CH") means "stay back". <br /><br />This helps them not get burned on the stove, keeps them from the open door and off the counters when I'm cooking. Now I just make the mouth noise and they go...well, all except Snafu.<br /><br />You may want to try it. <br /><br />Good Luck!<br /><br />~Lisa Co9TLisa Koloseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01579305961719320728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6954916914739549462.post-44930254066879437102010-11-12T01:42:01.818+01:002010-11-12T01:42:01.818+01:00dear houbibi
