Absolutely! My parents have a horizontal bar slightly higher than the working surface in their kitchen. The cats are allowed on the bar, not on the surface. These fuckers lay on the bar and stretch their paws down so they are barely hovering above the surface, as if they were saying "I'm not touching it!" like a child. And that's not a relaxed position, they have to really stretch their paws to touch it. Yet they always do it and look at you like "what are you gonna do? I'm not touching it!"
