How to stop a cat from jumping on the table

The happiness of a cat for a caring owner is so important that he does not dare to budge when a fluffy warm lump falls asleep in his arms.

To prevent a cat from walking around the table, you need to understand what attracts him there. There are at least three main reasons.

Why does a cat jump on the table?

1. Interest
   Cats love to look out the window. When the window sill is filled with pots or other things, and access to the window is only from the table, there is nothing surprising in the fact that the pet jumps there. Try to make room for admiring nature with your cat on the windowsill.
   
   
   
   
2. Good food.
   The smell of fried fish or a piece of sausage attracts more than the taste. Try not to leave food on the table or work surface, it is better to hide in the refrigerator - away from the temptation. Predatory cat nature makes the pet hunt, so even if the food does not taste, he will still hide it behind the sofa. Remember to feed your hunter: a well-fed cat is a lazy cat.
   
   
   
   
3. Shelter.
   If there are other animals or children in the house besides the cat, the animal will probably want to hide. You see, even the most affectionate cats love to have private space, and the table is the perfect place to relax. Especially if your phone or laptop is charging. Try to make a cat a small house where he can relax and no one will disturb him, then the table will seem to him not so comfortable. 2
