I taught my cats not to go on the keyboard. Took a while, but now two of them are very carefully stepping around it, and the third kinda does, but easily forgets when she gets excited.
Just consistently moving their paws off the keyboard when they try and go there, use "bad" voice, and putting them on floor if they continue. And "a while" was almost a year.
I love cats and would like to have one but I don't because I also like to not have my things moved around or messed with at the whim of a bored animal.
I wish there was a way to have cat friends rather than pets, so they could come visit and I could let them in for a bit if it's a good time and then they go off and do their cat things elsewhere.
There are cat cafes in the states too. Usually linked to adoptions.
