kitten jumping on kitchen counter

Hi,

We have had our kitten for about 2 months now ans just yesterday she learned to jump on the kitchen counters. Our kitchen is open so no door that we can close to make her stay out. how do we make her stop/let her know that it's wrong? when we flick her with water she doesnt seem to care so much. any advice is welcome!

Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter

Ahhh, how can you not like kittens
Same advice really keep getting her and say no firmly. Trouble is with cats is they'll do it anyway when they think your not looking, lol.

Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter

My Alfie shows no interest in jumping on the kitchen sides but Lola's a little pest! she always jumps on the table! She isn't doing it when I'm around but I could guarantee she's up on that table when I'm not looking!

Re: kitten jumping on kitchen counter

My elder female cat learnt very quickly not to do it, but my younger boy still pushes his luck and will jump on to the counter if I'm not looking.
