Michael, I hate to confess, but this is one of the reasons why I hate
cats. Not cats in general, just don't want 'em in my house. You can
train a dog not to snag something off a counter, but you can't train a
cat. You also can't train a cat to keep off kitchen counters or any
other surface that you don't want germ-ified. I'm sure your cats are
sweet li'l critters, but I just hate cats in a house.
