Cats & Dogs: Cats won't learn...
...not to jump onto counters. I have ended up deleting the cats out of frustration. They just show a big question mark over their heads when my Sim tries to lecture them over and over about not jumpin...

Update (way faster than expected):
Not sure if this will work for you but I can confirm this finally fixed the cat jumping on the counter issue. After swapping between “lecture” and “scold” about jumping on counters a literal 20-50 times, I eventually got the music and notification that my cat had learned not to jump on the counters. Lo, and behold however, my cat was back on the counter within seconds.
It was at this point that I evicted my household and then moved them back into the house - if you move back in “furnished”, you essentially just return to your home. When the cat started jumping on the counters again, I repeated my “lecture”/“scold” routine and got the successful training message again after about 15 attempts. But this time... IT ACTUALLY WORKED. The cat now goes over to the places it usually would jump to and looks up at them but doesn’t follow through with it anymore.
Best of luck!
Details: my cat’s characteristics are glutton, fluffy, and clever.
