it sounds like its the smell thats attracting her, ive heard that the type of paste stuff they use in the mixture has a fishy smell to it and alot of cats find it interesting, best of luck

They only have to stand on it once (and it doesn't hurt them, its just an unpleasant feeling) to know, and never go near it again.

oh thank you

I will look into that.

I think that thing is happening to me - some people have said that it would eventually - I am starting to care less

hehe that is nothing - I put even more sticky tape up there so that she couldn't possibly side track it and I came in to find her sitting on the stuff!

Scat mat eh! What a good idea!!! I could put one on each corner of my sofas instead of lead lining against them scratching the hell out of every sofa I ever own.

Shocked this morning. Sitting at table eating breakfast with OH and Waffles put her paw on the door knob to her food cupboard and opened it....

ha ha! Well done Waffles! Clever girl - you'll have to put child locks on everything

Child locks is definitely the way to go. I have them on a chest of drawers in the spare bedroom, because Harry found from the shelf next to the drawers, he could put is paw behind them, push and I'd come home to a pile of drawers in the middle of the room with all the contents removed. I also have a lock on my kitchen door

Otherwise they just open the door and stroll in

My sod of a cat opens doors too, one can turn the telly on!!
That was scarey the first time she done it, middle of the night.
Now it's just amusing!

My friend had to child lock the fridge and the cat even opened it afterwards, if it had a chicken in it!
