Are you frustrated with your cat jumping on the table and kitchen counters? Here are some tips to help keep your Ragdoll cat on the floor and off your counters.
The first thing you can try is a squirt from a water bottle with a dash of vinegar in it or rattling a metal can with coins inside will communicate to your cat that you do not approve of it jumping on the table. You need to make sure your Ragdoll cat understands he or she is getting sprayed for jumping on the table. If you are consistent with your squirting your cat will associate jumping on the table with getting squirted; once you cross that bridge you’re well on the way to teaching your cat not to do that.
Other methods include using double sided tape. Having your paws stuck to tape is a very unpleasant experience. Strategically placing double sided tape on your counters and tables for a short while may be enough to teach your cat to stay off. Aluminum foil or scat pads are other training aids for this purpose.
If you are patient and consistent with your training you can teach your Ragdoll cat to stay off your kitchen table and counter tops.
