Cats are precarious creatures. Do you agree with that statement? They do the weirdest things. I mean, our cat sees what I call "ghosts" on the wall and jumps for no reason. He's a funny rascal, that one.
But as much as I love felines, they can get onto everything, including your kitchen counters. However, there is one trick to stop that, and you have to see it, ha, ha!
We are lucky enough that our cat Mayu mostly stays on the ground. I've only seen him jump on the kitchen counter once or twice so far.
And it can be super annoying, especially if you are doing meal prep or are in the middle of cooking. Am I right. So what can you do about it?
And guess what? It works like a charm. All you need is aluminum foil. Aha! That's right. I can tell you right now — cats hate aluminum foil!
Every time I grab some aluminum foil and start unrolling it, our cat bolts from the kitchen. Ha, ha! It's pretty hilarious. It happens EVERY SINGLE TIME! I tell you, without fail, he takes off and real fast.
It has to have something to do with the texture of the foil that scares the living daylights out of cats. Once they hear it or step on it — it's over. They're gone! So you see where I'm going with this?
So this one lady on TikTok heard about it, and she wanted to test it herself. She posted a video where she lined her kitchen counter with foil and waited for the cat to jump on it.
You've got to see this video. OMG, I was laughing so hard. This lady must've been too, because you can clearly see the camera is shaking at the end. Watch it and see for yourself, ha, ha!
And it was all at the expense of this unsuspecting cat. I mean, come on, the party has to end for this kitty sometime. It serves him right.
Or is this cruel and unusual punishment? Ha, ha! To be clear, cats do land on their feet, so he was totally fine. He just got freaked out, and it made for a super cool video. That's all.
