Another method of kitty kontrol

She does know to settle down on my kilted lap, though. It may more to do with my occasional bonking her on the head with a knuckle than any good behavior on her part.
Flicking in the ear - I still have the clicker I used for dog training somewhere - I may have to try that. Would work better at a distance.
I've thought about that, and I have enough hair bagged already for a fly plaid.
And yes - I know of some weavers who've done this sort of thing before.
We used to use a squirt bottle of water to zap our two retrobates, but they respond much quicker to air. What we do is use a can of compressed air, the stuff you use to poof dust from your computer keyboard etc. YOU DON'T AIM IT AT THEM...IT COULD HURT THEIR EYES. Just do quick "Hisss" of air in any direction...it is the sound not the blast of air that works, and they jump and run away. It must sound like a warning hiss of another cat. They can't figure out where that cat is so they assume it is you.
