    mine have never got on worktops or tables, but try leaving some orance or lemon oil/peel on the table in a few saucers, cats don't really like citrus.
    Cats don't have owners - they have staff!! :D:p

    [STRIKE]Mine never go on worktops[/STRIKE] I have never seen mine on worktops. They know [STRIKE]not to do it[/STRIKE] not to get caught.

    Occasionally I'll hear a quiet thud as one jumps down from the table or worktop. If I run to the door I may see one of them with a guilty look on their face.

    This is during the day when they're asleep most of the time. I'd rather not know what they get up to at night.

    I'd doubt anyone who said their (active & healthy) cat, when given full access, didn't go anywhere it shouldn't.

    they always have a reason - Because they can.
