Cat Talk: I think that yah need to send the message to her- in your mind's eye- of the kitty carrier that she would have to go in if she isn't quiet as a mouse. Tell her that you love her a lot and that you know that she can play with a toy before you have to get up in the morning and mention that you're tired and that you just need more sleep- as well as any visitors!! Perhaps she needs some colored feathers that she can drag around or hit with her paw. Amelia Kinkade mentioned about getting feathers at a craft store rather than buying kitty toys which are more costly. Whatever she likes that you do tell her that you will do more of this if she is silent - like a lamb. Use positive leading rather than using 'don't' ex."I love it when you can show me what you want in a cute, funny way"-- something like that. Handy Hints from Bhavani the cat-scanner.
