🖤 How do you guys summon your babies?

If I can’t find Shushu I just go to the bathroom and turn on the lights/fan. He’ll immediately come running but I don’t know why; not like I regularly give him baths or anything 😆

I have little sing-song melodies for two of my cats (Tashi Bear Princess mozzarella sung like a nursery rhyme and Jibba Jabba Joey Joe sung like I'm scatting to a 1940's jazz song). The third one responds to a can of food opening. She knows her name, but doesn't come when called unless there is something in it for her.

I used to have a cat who would come running when he heard my husband turn onto his left side in bed. It was little spoon time! I don't know how he distinguished that sound from any other bed creak, but he sure did.
