Thread: Help my kitten is terrorizing me!

I have mixed feelings about "jumpers" and "horseback riders".
It brings memories about my beloved cat who used to do it after I trained her (she did not keep her claws out, and did it very gracefully) and I enjoyed giving her a ride while she was sitting on my shoulder like a hawk. Then my frail and ill mom moved in with us and cat did the same thing to her. My mom was very angry at my cat because she could easily bring her down to the floor with her weight . By then it was impossible to stop that habit, and my mom had to always watch her back. Many years passed ; my mother died at age 78, and my cat died at age 18.
I now have nostalgia for those jumps and rides, but my new cats don't want to jump on my back even with encouragement.
Enjoy your scratches...
