Like all cats, Tuxedo is very active around the house. She explores everything and everywhere, high and low. She runs around the house using my bed as a diving board. As she grows, she has discovered she can jump on things.
She likes to look out windows. I keep a window shade open in my bedroom so she can look outside and see me at the same time. One day, I woke up to find that she had slept on my bedroom dresser all night. Of course, I was not happy about that.
She used to jump off when I approached her and sternly instructed her to get off the dresser. Now when I see her and reprimands her with my stern and commanding voice, she just stares at me like I’m crazy. It’s a “What Do You Want?” kind of stare that makes me want to strangle her little cat neck. She is testing her boundaries.
I haven’t been able to keep up with her jumping on things. I had to move my bamboo plant to a place where I hope she cannot jump. She is so different from my other cats in the past. She knows I don’t like it, but so far she is having her way with me. She’ll give me a little respect if I give her a deadly stare, and will jump down. She knows she’s not supposed to be on furniture. I have decided to pick my battles. As long as she gets down when I tell her, I’ll take that and be happy. When I’m not home, she clearly has the run of the house.
