I finally moved the tattal tale Monday(someone sent me a big
arrangement of roses) to my dresser. That being lower the cats all
jump on it and I did not want them to know over the flowers which they
all were very curious to see.

So Lancelot still has not attempted the high boy or tv. He did get on
my dresser and sat on the tattle tale.....sorta just looked back at it
with no worry.....seems it looses it's effect - or at least on him.

It turned out to be a waste for me. From the first time it went off,
the cats all loved the sound. Now I just use it when I'm cooking or
have a candle burning in the kitchen so I know if someone (Rhett)
jumped on the counter. Then I can shoo him safely down before he
burns himself.

My tattle tale is still working with my baby cat.  If she gets used to it at
least I will know when she is up to something!

That is about all the good it does for me now. It alerts me one of the
4 cats is where I don't want them.
They all now ignore the sound and stay on the dresser until I shoo
them off.
My son says get a scat mat ---- I think not. I think thta would cause
a whole new batch of problems let alone I do not wish to cause any of
the cats pain or stress.

Don't know how loud the tattle-tale is, but I've had great success with
the Scraminal. It's loud. I have one on a kitchen counter, and
sometimes in the morning, in my bleary-eyed state I'll forget it's
there, and trigger it. I then have a Strange Fear of the counter, and
will not go near it for weeks. Er.

Maybe a scraminal will be the next step.  The Tattle Tale is loud enough to
make you jump but doesn't bother your eardrums the way the burglar alarm
does.
