The presence of a pet in an apartment is a real joy for its residents.

But sometimes people don't like the behavior of their pets.

For example, many cats like to jump on the dining table just when family members are eating.

In addition, fluffy creatures often pay attention to indoor plants. And this is fraught with more than just the pot falling on the floor.

The consequences may be much more serious: if the animal starts gnawing the leaves, there is a risk of poisoning.

How can you make your cat avoid the dining table and the area with flora? There is a simple way!

Trick with foil

It is enough to put metal paper on the surface where the cat should not jump.

So, a furry four-legged friend will most likely ignore the table and windowsill if they are covered with foil.

The same material can be used to wrap plant pots.

It's not just the sound of foil that irritates cats. Pets also don't like sticky tape.

It is enough to put some scotch tape on the surface “forbidden” for the animal. Of course, with the sticky side up.

The material will constantly stick to the animal's paws. As a result, the fluffy one will start to bypass the "protected" area.
