Yes, Miss Bo loves to get on my kitchen counter tops!! I don't like this because she can track dirt and whatever else is on the floor on top of my clean counters. She has learned to do this when I am not at home, because every time she's tried it with me around I've caught her and reprimanded her. She did get on my dining room table once, I had a terrycloth table cover on it and it was a hot day. She was spread out on it, apparently keeping an eye on what I was doing in the backyard. When I came inside and caught her, I was so amused I didn't have the heart to reprimand her, I just gently picked her up and put her on the floor.
Years ago, I had a black and white kitten that loved to swat at the metal chains on my cuckoo clock. Sabrina would wait until me or my husband would appear, then swat at the chains and when we'd approach her and scold, she'd run behind the couch and peep out at us as if she were daring us to chase her. My husband called her "the black imp" or "the little black devil" because she was really ornery, but a loving pet anyway (you can tell who liked Sabrina the most!).
