She wants to play and be in my lap or snuggle or just be all up in my business ALL the time and also yowls outside my door when I'm working or sleeping.  I got her [this](https://www.amazon.com/SmartyKat-Hot-Pursuit-Concealed-Motion/dp/B06WP7F8YC/ref=bmx_7?pd_rd_w=dtRRP\u0026amp;pf_rd_p=f71775c5-9fe6-4e06-a8bc-a95de49acaab\u0026amp;pf_rd_r=WW63QCJNVW1N6GKHJ23Z\u0026amp;pd_rd_r=cbaf460e-b43a-4086-a0cd-8e2681a34ad4\u0026amp;pd_rd_wg=o7a5g\u0026amp;pd_rd_i=B06WP7F8YC\u0026amp;psc=1) toy a few years ago and she LOVES IT.  I buy her so many goddamn toys, a lot are expensive and interactive, but this is the one she loves THE MOST by far.  A lot of other cats love it too.  It looks like it might be semi-sold out on amazon right now but they have it a lot of places and it's normally only around $12.  It has lasted years now despite her constant aggressive attacks.  Whenever she's annoying me I turn it on and she immediately runs over to it and goes nuts.  Highly recommend.  \r\n\r\nAlso, getting draft guards for under your interior doors (bedroom door, office, etc) really, really helps to muffle the noise.  I got them because my cat would reach her paw under the door and violently jiggle it back and forth, making a ton of noise, but after I installed them I learned it also really cut down on noise from the other side (aka her constant cries for attention).  \r\n\r\nYou additionally need to be consistent with not responding to her going nuts.  If your office is in an individual room, close the door while you're working and don't let her in no matter what.  I used to let her sleep in my bed and when my boyfriend (now husband) started staying over a lot he was like um..no, because she knocks over everything in the room very aggressively at like 4am to wake me up.  She was very mad at first but now she's used to it and she has plenty of very comfy places all over the house to sleep instead.","subreddit_name":"Pets","author":"gabbythefck"},{"body":"Lol oh no :(!

Cats go to the secure place, then wait there until they have sussed out their environment from under the bed.  They may be tempted out by an enticing robot toy, and for this I recommend this thing which is the only toy we have that gets my Tuesday to forget she's scared of stuff and want to kill the fluffy.  This reminds her that she is a brave little hunter and that the bed is her hunting cave:\r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/SmartyKat-Hot-Pursuit-Concealed-Motion/dp/B06WP7F8YC/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=smarty+cat+toy\u0026amp;qid=1558910692\u0026amp;s=gateway\u0026amp;sr=8-3-spell\r\n\r\nYou don't have to get in on Amazon but I recommend it as a toy.  Add catnip to the tail but for extra kittehbelleh.\r\n\r\nCats will stay in their cave until they are tempted out.  This means a) leave them be, and b) put stuff near the place they holed up in that they have the option of being interested in, without pushing it on them.  \r\n\r\nIf all noises and movements seem to freak them out, just leave the room to them for a day or two and let them come out when they're curious.  Cats are curious creatures once their natural fear of bigger creatures has subsided enough for their cat-pride to remind them that they can manipulate us into... well let's just say that I haven't been to the bathroom, showered or slept alone for three years now.\r\n\r\nJust give them time, things to be interested in (i.e. kill, at least for now) and add other bolt holes they can move over to, like cat trees with enclosures and cardboard boxes with multiple escape methods.\r\n\r\nIdeally, to make a cat feel secure, add up-high retreats and getaways.  In the wild, most cats prefer to have a little highway they can access that we don't step on - tree branches, walls, etc.  For a cat to be at home in a human home, you have to give them a range of cubbies, gangplanks, shelves and hideyholes that let them live next to you, rather than on your actual plane.\r\n\r\nAlso if they have a way to move around the house that doesn't involve your couch, they won't scratch the shit out of it.  As much.  \r\n\r\nFor now, leave the cat alone but do interesting things that a cat might like (tying string to your ankle works well).  In the long term, try to look at your home from your cat's point of view and give them an alternative way to get around that makes them feel safe and in control.  Cats really like to be in charge, and they feel easier about that if they can get up high and look down.","subreddit_name":"NorwegianForestCats","author":"Amonette2012"},{"body":"I bought this one and my cats can't get enough of it.
