Cats walking on the table?

As much as we try to stop it our cats walk right on top of our kitchen table. We have a squirt bottle but that really doesn't work. In fact one wants a drink, he will come up to the bottle and lick it!

I have given up on it recently but I do not like it because when you sit at the table they seem to think they can come hang out with us. Not really good especially if you have company.

Do you have any tricks to stop this behavior or is it too late to try and stop it?
