Cats like to climb up high places, even curtains. But, they may get claws stuck in curtains. So, it’s good to have cat proof curtains or blinds.

For example, thick, slippery curtains are hard for cats to climb. If possible, you can hang a curtain or blind in between double glazed windows.

The smell and mysterious noise when touching a trash bin could attract your curious kitty. But, it could be dangerous if she eats food waste there.
