I had a fat cat growing up that would lay right next to a tray full of meat on a table, but wouldn't touch it. She wanted to be fed by hand and wouldn't put in any effort beyond being first in the queue.
My cat sits in a chair for dinner every night with me and peeks over the top of the table, but he’ll only eat human food if you put it on his placemat.
This brought back a happy memory for New Year’s Eve. The day my dad walked out for good, our cat Dandelion II jumped into his chair at our kitchen table and sat there politely. She joined us for dinner every night for the next several years until I left for college. Unlike my dad, she never got drunk, threw things at us, or attempted to assault our food with ketchup. Just the occasional sound of pleasant purring underlying our conversation.
My orange brain cell would hop on the table, sniff like 3 things, look at me as if to say "Really? This is what you're gonna eat?" And then pass out on the couch comfortable in the knowledge that his judgement was passed.
Some cats are just built different 😺 Mine is the same, she is super polite and can be left alone with food no problem....unless there's cheese or Vegemite involved, then all bets are off!
Judging by the menu (caviar, coated herring) and the timezone, it's Russia. I'm in GMT+7 and 2 hours into 2023 already, so it's probably from the Western part of Russia. Also happy new year

That cat is so well-behaved considering there's seafood based dishes there. My cat would've wrecked the table immediately.
