How can I stop a cat pushing small objects off the television stand?
Our answer
Move breakables away, add a permitted elevated perch and reward use of the perch instead of repeatedly reacting to the pushing.
Why this approach makes sense
Check the animal’s actual habit and offer a suitable alternative gradually. Size, access, texture and placement can matter as much as the product.
Before you try it
Watch for signs of stress or discomfort and adjust the setup to the individual animal.
