Educational information, not veterinary or individual behavior advice. Do not stage a fall, punish or provoke a cat. Secure fragile objects out of reach. Ask your veterinary team about sudden or concerning behavior changes.
Make a surface-change card
Temporary preparation only. Entries are not saved or sent; reload clears them. Record a surface you already know, without making the cat repeat an event.
One surface, one useful record
Choose a surface you already know, such as the desk beside the window. Record what was on it and the relevant access you observed. Do not climb, move unstable furniture or invite the cat to demonstrate a route for the worksheet.
Separate removal from proof
Example only: ceramic ornament moved into a closed cabinet; notebook left on the desk; window ledge still reachable. This is an organizational example, not a safety assessment of those objects or a guarantee about the cabinet.
Keep the unanswered question visible
The form can hold an open question such as where can this fragile item be stored out of reach? It does not verify storage, assess toxicity, rank hazards or produce a pet-proof score. Use appropriate professional advice for anything you cannot assess safely.
Temporary means temporary
The form displays your words in page memory only. Reload clears them. Nothing is saved, sent to a clinician or inserted into analytics. Use your own records if you want to retain the card; no form is required before getting help.
