he's jumping on my back
Rudy that is, only when I'm on the comptuer....he gets lots of loving,
this last though I didn't have a heavy sweater on and he took a gouge out of my back since Rudy took a flying leap, I wasn't paying attention talking to friend that was helaping me fix the computer....I let out a one hell of scream because it hurt like hell and he went running to parts unknown How do I break him of this habit? It has to be done quick. Rudy's a big boy, weighs 18 lbs and I don't want his brother picking up the habit. thanks much for any info ensoul The truth is rarely pure and never simple. ~Oscar Wilde |

That alone may have been enough to break him of the habit. If not, keep doing it anytime he jumps on your back so he will start associating his action with something negative. That should make him stop. My kitten kept climbing in the refridgerator. I kept taking him out and telling him no, but it didn't do any good. The other day I didn't realize he was starting to go in and the door slammed shut. It hit him on the way and he ran FAST. He wasn't hurt, but it definitely scared him. Now when I open the door, he backs away pretty quickly. -- Lynne "Every once in a while, the tables are turned and we get to share our lives with an animal who takes care of their human." - Tara, rpdb |
