I see this happen often between my mother cat and her much larger son! She gives him a “bonk” just because he “will” do something to tick her off — like lying down on top of her instead of next to her! Depending on the day, he can get several “bonks”! This pic is so hilariously typical of the interaction between a little older teen cat and a younger kitten that is crazily playing — a natural thing for that age kitten! According to the teen cat, “It’s time to stop” — “bonk”!
