I have this rule that when the foodtime song plays, those are the only FoodTimes and if cats violate that contract by begging for food near the foodarea, I start following them singing "You still belong to meeee-eeeeee" and get increasingly more intrusive of their personal space while tailing them until they've taken initative to shake me off by retreating to one of the designated Sanctuary/Uncle-Zones, miles away from the feedingHole
Kinda like when people follow you in their car and its like bumper to bumper almost but not quite. It works too kinda, haha. I definitely get a kick out of it, some good clean harmless family shenanigans
Also my youngest delights when I annoy and tease her with the fingertrap i get my weed vapor cartridges

Sorry. I couldn't get past 'ennoy'. My brain simply wouldn't let me.

Yeah the letters are also far enough away on the keyboard imo where you really had to just not give a shit for that

The a and e are still about the same distance apart on qwerty vs dvorak
There’s really no excuse for spelling it ennoy

Trolling is how we express love in my household.

Its funny too I'll kinda lightly nip her back paws with my toe to accelerate the urgency/stiflingness of it to help work things along lol.
She hates it so much she loves it

I tackle my cat and pretend we're playing rugby. He got a wee bit too excited the other day and I did get a tiny scratch. I had my hands around him and I continued to hold him as he rolled on the ground. When I withdrew my hands I did it in a slight panic, and too fast, so he grabbed me with all his paws at once lol.

The kitten finds affection that she doesn't initiate to be 'annoying' and well. She has such a kissable head, how can I resist???

I try to do similar for our kitchen but one of mine just lays there and takes it at the 'line' between rooms. He is super food oriented so he'll put up with anything to stay in the area. BTW I also train my cats to do tricks for treats, food oriented ones are the easiest to get to cooperate with that idea.
I also like to go around and wake everyone up midday when I take lunch (I work from home). Helps make them want to sleep, at least a little, at night instead of staying up being noisy assholes.
