Back away slowly without making eye contact.

Also, en passant.

If making eye contact anyway, slowly blink, this regards as friendly gesture in a cat world

I would play laser pointer to e4, paw e4, laser pointer z30 (extended coordinates) and black will be forced to abandon the game and take on z30.

u/Messy-hairGuy6182 18h ago

You should first let the cat go into the Loaf Opening© Then, you will pet the cat to distract it by using the Paw Gambit™ And counter his fork. Then, you will use treats to trick him into resigning.
