Only the most well-behaved cats show no interest in the table, because the owner has done his "educational work".

However, for some cats, even training measures have no effect.

Therefore, it is worth understanding why cats are so attracted to the table.

What is the main reason?

Experts believe that the main reason for cats' curiosity and interest is food. Animals have a very powerful sense of smell, so they know perfectly well what "delicacies" you have sent to the table.

Sometimes cats can't resist these enticing scents.

Even after the meal is over, the cat may jump on the table for an "inspection": residual odors will still be present.
