1. Glass top is easiest to clean.

2. Spritz the cat with water when he jumps up there.
He will eventually equate the water spritzing with jumping on the table and stop jumping.

Assuming kitty hates being spritzed on.

4. Not so much
this guy likes to crawl around the edge of the tub when I'm in the shower. Water doesn't faze him much.

Maybe bleach? :shrug:

5. Hah! You might as well give it up and use tip proof or spill proof
beverage containers from now on. An added advantage of using a lidded drink container is that you don't have to drink after your cat anymore. I love my kitty, but I've seen where she has used her tongue before she samples my drink.

6. Silly monkey
Don't you know that coffee tables are to put your feet up on?
