Keeping Cats Off Window Screens

My grown cat keeps climbing on my window screens, wanting to come in the house. Any suggestions of how to keep the cat from climbing and tearing my screens with her claws?

Make her an indoor kitty. ^. .^

Cats don't like the scent of lemons, so you can spray some simple pledge or sprinkle with lemon pepper. Or, you can put some rounded molding on the outside, paint it good, and make it so there is no place to set. Putting pretty bottles full of colored water to catch the sun will also fill up the space.

Here is a link that suggests putting a scratching post that is vertical and rub on it some catnip. For more info on this subject of window scratching, see this site: http://www.pets.com/articles/1/0/546

You could try perfume sprayed on the screen, most cats don't like perfume. Or find a scent the cat is deterred by. you can even leave a scent soaked paper towel in the window. Serves two purposes deters cat and adds a nice scent to your home.

Spritz her with water every time she climbs. Insert the glass for a while and hope she forgets, spray some of the stuff that nurseries carry to deter pets onto the screen.
