I am surprised Novelchick that you didn't know that almost all cats do jump on counters. I have had cats all of my life and the only training going on is they train us. I try very hard to keep my house as clean as can be.

I wipe off the counters many times a day and run the sweeper daily and take the pet sponge on the furniture every day to de-hair it. I wash every bit of the bedding including the coverlets weekly.

I have never had anyone refuse a dinner invitation, but I admit your post has given me pause. The last thing I would ever want anyone to think is that my home is not clean.
