When cats fight, it can be like watching two people fight, but when two cats tease each other, that’s far more interesting. That’s what happened when two female cats, Hannah and Marla play. In this video, Hannah motions as if she’s going to hit Marla but pulls back, therefore not hitting her but still threatening her.
Technically, Hannah is innocent but because she keeps threatening to hit Marla, the effect is almost the same as if she did hit her. So the next time you want to smack someone stupid, consider using Hannah’s technique and just get on the verge of doing so and then stop. Cats know that psychological torture can often be more impactful than actual physical contact.
