RE: What do you do when your cat won't listen to you?

They HATE that and it's awesome because I throw the can and they have no idea it's me. They think it's some crazy, unknown object making a loud noise so after a few times they avoid the behavior they were doing because they figure out a connection to the loud, annoying can.
We have an air compressor in our garage which will periodically kick on, and it's incredibly loud. It scares the crap out of my cats whenever it turns on, and they literally jump like several feet in the air when it happens. It's hysterical to see.
That is a good idea with the coins in the can, never though of trying that. We were using water guns, but those *really* make my cats angry.One thing we've discovered completely terrifies our cats is when we have new people come over. They will take off and hide if someone comes over to visit. I never realized this because we seldom have anyone else over. They also get scared if we go stomping towards them (which we do when they are fighting or doing something bad). They will take off and hide in the corner behind our TV or under one of our beds.
