With all my cats: I like to do a cat scratch gesture like catwoman from a distance while we all laze around (again, from a distance).

Its like miming scratching a non-existant surface and they intuit that the imaginary surface I'm scratching is them.

Also "we" call scratching "scratcheese" lol

Ember, three years old: steals the thumb sticks from my controller, but places them right next to it.I pick them up and show them to her and she hangs her head in shame. Then I ask her if she played a trick on Dad

Stormy, just over a year: she lives up to her name she tears through life like a storm and has destroyed many things. My wife has three small Winnie the Pooh stuffies on her dresser. Stormy will sometimes pull them down, but somehow she knows that destroying them would not be a good thing, so pulling them down is as far as she goes.
