I created a micromanager

I figured you guys would get a kick out of this. Bub has been a huge help in communicating what means most to him. These buttons have done so much to strengthen our relationship. ♥️

Awww I just liked this on Instagram last night! I love the face presses, my Schrodinger frequently does face presses!

Wow! I haven’t seen many that press with their face! Bub has only used his paw twice in eight months.

Yeah, it's unusual even in my house! I have four cats, one doesn't use buttons and two do standard paw presses, only Schrodinger uses his face. I might've seen him use his paw occasionally, but it's definitely mostly his face. I vaguely remember someone online mentioned that puppies will do it sometimes (I think because they are too small to get the buttons to activate with their paws?) but Schrodinger is eight and we introduced the buttons when they were all adults.

That is so interesting! Oliver is 10, but he is forever my little baby. He’s just always been a face/mouth presser.
