    Rub catnip on THEIR things. You can squirt some white vinegar on the counter tops to try and repel them. I gave up as my cats just go up there anyway.

    None of mine climb except Kimba. I don't really mind, though. It is his house, too. He gets on top of the entertainment center, the bookcases, counters, etc... He is my most energetic cat.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    My cat Badd @$$ Buddy loves to be up high. That's what cats do. It's an escape for him. You can try putting aluminum foil on the counters. Seriously, I don't know what the big deal is.

    You need to get him his own TALL cat tree and spray it with catnip spray. It used to bother me when they climbed up on the counter. But not anymore. Like Katladyd said, it's their house too.

    You can try a squirt bottle. Just don't squirt them in the face. Aim for their body. Life's too short to let that kind of stuff bother you.

    We have that problem too. So many mornings I have woken up to the curtains being torn down because my frisky kittens thought it would be fun. Usually I keep a spray bottle of water at hand, I don't even have to squirt any more, they see the bottle and stop what they are doing. They just need a reminder every so often.
