Flicking water kind of works or Oh! How considerate! I am thirsty!
I haven't gotten around to getting a spray bottle to enhance Fizban's training. I found that flicking some water in her face while making a psst sound did the trick and she no longer gets on the table, while we are around anyway.
She's fascinated by watching me work. She loves to watch me type and when the cursor moves, she gets a front row seat on my lap. She tries to get on the keyboard but I've stopped her enough so that she only tentatively puts out a paw before I put my hand in front of her nose and she stops.
She discovered the velcro wrap for my laptop's power cord yesterday and wouldn't leave it alone. I flicked water, I made the sound, I moved her, I picked her up by the scruff of her neck and nothing would dissuade her from going after it. Her little face was soaked from me flicking the water. She came up on my chest, touched her nose to mine, and then went over to drink the water from the cup!
Then she went over to get some sun in order to dry off.
