∙ 7y agoUsually it is because they think they see something on the wall that they would like to catch. Cats are hunters, and have much more acute senses than we do; if they see a bug or a speck of dust that looks like it's moving like prey, they are hard-wired to try and catch it.
Some cats also simply like high places, where they can look down on their domain. Such cats will often climb curtains, or any other vertical thing which they can set their claws into.

However it can be trained not to jump up on things you do not wish them to jump up on. This takes lots of time and patience though.
