I will get the usual cat tree, scratching post, trying to work out where to put it at the moment lol.

The squirt bottles work for me & my cats,yep they luv water but if they are really misbehaving with more than one I found voice alone could wind the others up & the instigator just carried on,a quick sharp burst on the back with a firm no worked wonders between my lot & nowadays I just have one bottle on the side & only have to pick it up if things start getting a bit out of hand,no squirts needed,with six you need something to stop anything getting over & above quickly & luckily most of the time we have peace & harmony, only found the need to resort to something anyway when our numbers went up to four cats,up until then they seemed to learn no pretty quickly or as in the case of one "time out"was needed & that also worked.....
