Okay, so what would you recommend? He's still getting up there, his paws touch the counter before we take him down, so we still are wiping down the counters.

I can't find anything to keep him off the counters preventatively.

It almost feels like that Buddhist belief of - it's not the pain that's causing you to suffer, it's the desire to avoid pain that's causing you to suffer. I'm making myself crazy trying to get him off/keep him off counters, but he's doing it anyway - so the actual activity is the same (cat paws touching my counters), but I'm getting worked up over it when there is another option on that.

I agree it's gross and have always felt that way, although I will say we use a litter box system that is incredibly clean compared to clay litter (Tidy Cats Breeze). But I still agree in principle it's gross to have animals on the counter (or human feet). I just don't know what to do about it and feel like the healthiest mental option is to stop getting so annoyed by it. [/quote]
