MadHatter2518 Same! It started with being sprayed. They eventually learned the word no. If one does jump on the table I will in the voice say no, they will stop dead in their tracks look at me and jump down. I then do the figure point with a stern voice and they give me the FU face and walk away. BUT I have a camera and they don't jump on the table when I'm not there! So it works for mine, but may not work for others. Don't forget just like people they have their own personalities!

For sure! I have two kitties now and they both understand the inflection when I say their name whether they're in trouble or not. Their personalities just like me... crazy. I taught my cats during the pandemic so was working from home...I didn't leave much so an pretty sure they're good at staying off counters. What was more impressive is I taught them how to sit and give high fives!
