A cat is a curious animal by nature, and even if the pet has been living indoors for a long time, it still strives to climb into a new place.

In any case, you shouldn't scold the cat or try to throw it off.

You should also not allow your cat to climb on the kitchen table, as this is unhygienic.

It is important to understand that if this piece of furniture is located near a window, it will be used as an observation point.

  • Double-sided tape. You can temporarily attach small strips to the table. This will cause discomfort to the animal.
  • Foil. If you cover the table with food foil for a while, your cat might not like it either.
  • Scents: Add a few drops of lavender, rosemary, and citrus essential oils.

It is not recommended to spray your cat with a spray bottle, as the animal may simply become afraid of you.
