(a) Swallow. (b) Immediately say “At”. If you choke on it a little, you’re getting it right. :)

When my cat was a stray kitten, she was brought into my house with a towel as her blanket. Since then, she would claim and laid down on every towel as if they were her own bed. As soon she sees a towel laid down, she would jump off her scratching post bed and immediately laid onto the towel. My question is did your cats have attachments to specific objects in your home?
Not really, at least as far as I can remember noticing.
What they did love to do was steal pens. We made the mistake (for certain values of “mistake”) of teaching them all to fetch when they were young. One error we quickly corrected was teaching them to fetch using pens, because then our pens started disappearing and we started finding them all (eventually… when we figured out what was going on…) under the couch. We’d have to do a sweep once a month or so to recover all the pens played-with-and-forgotten under there.
…We also tried to course-correct on this by not using pens to teach new kittens to fetch any more–by using (for example) scrunched up paper or tinfoil balls. Unfortunately this strategy fell afoul of the older cats… who promptly started teaching the younger cats to (a) fetch pens and (b) steal them out of the pen pots to play with.
(eyeroll) Cats. What can I say. :)
