Anybody else "discipline" their cats this way?  It looks like the way we do things at our house.  LOL

I'm not sure what "squeee" is supposed to mean.  Sweetie is a well behaved house cat who usually understands what is expected of him.  When he does do something wrong I just say his name in a firm voice and that's enough to stop his behavior.  Just the other week I caught him lying under the kitchen table kicking hard at one of the wooden legs, so I said "Sweetie!!!!!" and he ran off.  A couple of minutes later he was back under the table kicking at  that same  leg, so I said "Sweetie!!!!" again, and this time when he ran off, he didn't come back.

Lorie, "squeee" is a way of saying "Aww!!" or "EEE! SO CUTE!"  in this sense. The comic is showing how most cat owners try to dicipline their cats, but instead, melts for the cats' charms and the cat wins due to cuteness. (Does that make sense?)

I know I get like that sometimes! How could a person stay mad at their cute widdle kitties?!

Exactly.  We have a joke between my sisters and I that the way we 'discipline' our pets is to give them about 10 chances to behave, and then give them a big hug and kiss and forget the discipline.....  LOL
