Mine loves the spray bottle. Not the water, the actual spray head. He rubs his face against it and wants me to drag it down his back. Isn’t really afraid of the water, just gets a little annoyed if I accidentally squeeze the trigger while rubbing his face.
I’ve tried, but they don’t do wrong often enough for me to keep track of the bottle, so by the time I’ve found it, it would just be a punishment for some random thing and useless.
I don’t keep a spray bottle around but I do keep some canned air (electronics duster) on my desk and that pretty much accomplishes the same thing without making anyone damp
A loud PSHHT sound and some harmless wind is a good analogue for “No” and he seems to get it
I spray mine with water if they do something really bad. Like bite someone.
My brother’s cat just stands there and braces for the water spray, then goes right back to misbehaving
Wasn’t a cat, but my friends pit pup started treating it like a game. Act up, I grab the bottle, she’d square up ready to try and dodge the spray.

Very true. It pretty much only works when he bites me.
