my kitten and miniblinds.

[gtbro1]

 
 How do you keep your pet from destroying thye miniblinds? I am now on my 4th set in less than a year.I know they are cheap but this is getting ridiculous. I used to spray her with water when I saw her messing with them.I thought I had her broken of the habit cause she went all winter without damaging them.I came home from work yesterday and it looked like a weed eater had gotten ahold of them.

I think you are lost with this one..
Did you let her do it when she was a kitten? Most of the time people think it's cute in the beginning so they just laugh at first but when they start getting older they are unstopable in their behavior... People tend to forget to raise a kitten ....i tryed to raise my cats as if it were my dogs.
I know it sounds stupid but they sure know now what they can and can't do around the house...

  No I have always punished her for her behavior.She is very mischievious.She knows when she is doing wrong.I will see her and as soon as I get up from my chair she runs for it. hahaha hides under the bed where I can't get her.

Put the blindes up when you are not home.

Or, don't get the thin plastic minis, get metal ones.  They make a lot of noise when messed with and it will probably scare her.

Maybe she is attracted to the pull-string?  There are blinds available w/o strings.

  That aint a bad idea...I could get the metal ones and run a jumper wire to the neares electrical outlet.

lol, but ya, they make a racket and cats don't like the noise.

  But when one of the metal one bends, the kink usually stays.

    Or go with verticals.

Related to what was said, move whatever's she's standing on-furniture, etc. out of reach of the blinds so she can't get near them.

Some sprays might work on the blinds, dissuade her from going near them.
