Just pile a bunch of mice around it while it’s asleep, and wait for the fun when it wakes up! Or, better yet, send the pictures out on social media to the cat’s friends.
This is Mimo, a tabby in Japan:
And this story at The Dodo, which I offer in the spirit of conciliation, will warm the hearts of d*g lovers.
My cat would call that breakfast in bed.

What humiliation? It’s a coat made out of mice.
“Ooh, did you make it yourself?”
*Burp* “Yes.”
“What humiliation? It’s a coat made out of mice.”
Or a variation on my other comment. The cat can brag to his friends “I have my owners so well trained they have breakfast waiting for me when I wake up”.
These are Ikea mice. I didn’t know they had an Ikea in Japan, but it figures.
It’s called Aeki.
Surely, any confirmed catlover must know that it’s the easiest thing in the world to humiliate them. Anything which slightly dents their pride, or impinges upon the full and free exercise of their superiority over the rest of us will do that! I thought that Winston Churchill’s statement about dogs looking up to us and cats looking down on us (whilst pigs regard us as equals) summed things up perfectly until I read Christopher Hitchens’ quote: “Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods.”
Great quote. My sister’s cat is humiliated if you show her affection and she did not initiate it. You must approach her with sufficient deference. Then she is quite nice.
I put a stuffed lobster on Orson. He was neither impressed not embarrassed.
The heartwarming d*g story is really good. There was a similar one making the rounds of the reaction of an abused d*g that experiences human kindness for the first time. No human being can watch it without melting utterly into a puddle. Like the song says, It’s just impossible.

The Indian Group does great work, I’ve seen their Videos before.
