STARING
     Treat your humans to an unwavering, unblinking stare for several minutes
at a time.  This has the effect of sensitizing them to your  presence, and
unnerving them by making them wonder if there is  something wrong with them.
 Especially recommended at meal times.
     Occasionally vary the stare technique by gazing fixedly at a wall.
  This causes the human to wonder if there is a spider on the wall, or
 perhaps a mouse behind it.

BEING "PETTED" -- IF YOU'LL PARDON THE EXPRESSION
     As you are being rubbed, or scratched in your favorite spot (on you,
 not the location in the room), begin to purr.  As soon as you have
established your liking for the activity, turn suddenly and bite or  scratch
the human.  This will cause them pain and astonishment, and  prevent them
from taking you for granted.
     This technique can be extended by the occasional "disdain" maneuver,  in
which you turn and walk away when you are rubbed in a place which  the human k
nows you like.  This keeps the human guessing.
