One of our cats (TJ, maine coon) is a food hog. He is a bit chubby (on a diet now) and eats a lot compared to the others. When we are cooking he jumps onto the counters and takes or licks whatever we have. For example, yesterday I left the butter open and he was eating that. Today he was trying to get my strawberry jam. And the other night he took chicken from a frying pan (that was turned on!). How do we break him of this? Obviously it's bad and annoying, but I'm more concerned for his safety. He just started doing this when we moved last week. There is A LOT more counter space. He loves sleeping in the sink, so I let him. But I don't want him taking food. He knows the word "off" but now he just jumps to another counter or the island or runs to the other side of the counter and hides in the sink (pretty big kitchen).
