You see me--You hear me

Figured out how to get the cat out of the bedroom if he sneaks in while I'm getting ready for work. Just go downstairs and open and shut the sliding glass door really loudly so he thinks Mommy's come home to save him. Furry little vermin.

I bet he figures that game out within two weeks. He's not dumb; he'll learn. Problem is, your room is forbidden (Shit, I had to look at the dictionary to spell that word.), and to cats that is just not acceptable. To some, it's a challenge. If your room were complete open to the varmit, he wouldn't grace it with his presence.

Well yes. But if my room were completely open to him, he would eat my hair ties and knock everything off my shelves and my altar. And I'm too lazy to catproof my room.

Get him used to occasional treats of wet cat food and when he's in there go down and open a can?

*snirk*

Actually, a simpler method would be to find one of the mice. They're propogating, so one shouldn't be hard to find around the house [or, if it is, there's a stash in the linen closet--actually, another method would be to open that linen closet door, as he's come to associate that closet/sound with (a) catnip and/or (b) hairball treats].

With mouse in hand, stand out in the hallway and rattle enticingly.

No cans, though. Bad cans.
