Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter
What about something like this ? You can add to it too if you want. We have one and it's fab, my 10 week old kittens are never off it, lol. Some of their new owners have even bought them ready for when they go to their new homes, cause they liked them so much

Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter
Definitely need a scratching post - we have two in different rooms! i put lots of toys and treats on there too so they know it's theirs. One with a hidey hole would be pretty good then she has somewhere to settle down and feel safe.

Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter
Hi,
You could try and get some catnip spray and spray the scratcher with it. The kitten is only doing what is natural to her really. Mine only jump on the work surfaces when they are ready to be fed, do you have other places where she can sleep or sit high up. I have catrix centres but also wooden scratchers which they really love because they have several places to sit. Lots of cat toys would help too. Hope this helps. Jo

Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter
I can really, really recommend the Catrix cat scratcher. Very easy to assemble (absolutely no screws, hammers etc needed), modular so you and construct your own design, the cats love it and you can construct lots of 'resting' places i.e. the square soft cat bed and the paw (wouldn't recommend the hammock).
Easy to clean/hoover - detachable cat bed thingy for machine washing and you can hang/tie things off it for cat fun! Replaceable parts when cat scratches it to bits. And best of all cats really, really love it and use it to bits!

Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter
My big lounge is open plan onto the kitchen and so like others I can't stop them going up on the units. I do have climbers and all sorts of toys but cat curiosity and all that. As I have no one else to contaminate here I just have to make sure the surfaces are clean and sterile when I prepare my own food, easy peasy.
