Rules of the House
These are the rules of the house for Sugar and Roxy. Offenses punishable w/ sprays from water-bottle:
1. Use the litterbox, always. (So far, no problem w/ this at all--knock on wood.)
2. No scratching on furniture--only on scratching po st.
3. The bedroom is Off Limits. (That's why the door is always firmly closed.)
4. Do not get *on* the dining room table while I'm watching. (I am not so naive as to think you won't when I'm not around.)
5. Do not use teeth on people. Paw-bats (claws-in) and quick mouthing w/o biting down are marginally acceptable ways of expressing your opinion. Teeth and deliberate clawing are not.
I think those are a sufficiently minimal set of standards. We'll see what Sugar and Roxy think as time goes on. :-)
