I think keeping cats off counters is like trying to talk a bird out of flying!

In our house, its impossible to talk the birds INTO flying!!! They just don't want to fly.........and refuse to. They like walking on the kitchen counters, and no one tells them to get off..........unless there's food cooking.......THEN, of course, they aren't allowed in the kitchen for their safety. When there's no food cooking, sometimes we put them up on the counters ourselves. I give them crackers or veggies on the counters. Easier to clean there.
