Boyfie knows very well that the only place he is not allowed is my
bedroom.
He snuck in there today and nearly jumped out of skin when I found him in
there looking around.
He rushed back down the stairs.

Kitties are very contextual too. Buster likes being pet in some rooms, but
not in others.

I do think that cats can feel somewhat guilty. Buster gets this coy look,
glancing over his shoulder, when he thinks that he might be doing
something
"bad". The girls, Dot and Spicey, are more likely to brazen out any
situation though.

Boyfie also knows that he is not allowed on my work surfaces in the kitchen
but he will risk it in case there is something I've cooked and is cooling.
If I hear him jump down, I go into the kitchen with an angry face and a
calm voice and say "what do you think you were doing?"
He knows very well what is allowed, or not.
He sometimes risks it.
How are you getting along with Spicey now?
