Chapter 20 How To Deal With Cats That Knock Things Over
Most often than not, cats tend to send things crashing to the floor in the course of vigorous play a wild dash up the way culminates in a big leap from floor to couch to end table, then for good measure sending the intervening lamp light crashing to the floor in the process.
Sometimes, however the cat will deliberately push an item over the edge of a shelf or table to get a reaction from you, then rushing away from the incident resulting chaos and infuriated humans.
What would you call this behavior? just incident toying with prey will be a common behavior in feline hunters.
When you notice your cat nudges something small over like a stationary item with her paw the cat will practice the same behavior.
But your cat's instincts will tell it that paperweight or even nick knack could just turn out to be just a mouse.
Her real poking paw would send it scurrying to the deck, giving the cat some fun and thinking its playing a good game.
When the cat starts to learns that knocking something to the floor or smashing it will bring humans on the double-quick towards them, and the cat may actually just start to do it on purpose.
Just to get your attention and especially in particularly if it feels that a meal is late and long overdue.
Try to find the cat something else to do. because a bored cat will just find her own way to amuse itself and pushing things off high places and hearing them drop is often one of them.

Remove any temptation well out of her way. like low shelves, counter tops, or the tables lined with nick knacks about the place, even collectibles, like small easel-backed picture frames are going to be an invitation to disaster the home with your cat.
When you got anything that just won't survive a trip from whatever surface it's on then it will find its way to the floor and if this should happen to be put somewhere else or just by surrounded by a simple cat-proof barrier, like a putting porcelain figurines in front of a glass front case hidden away rather than on showing open shelves.
