You can’t reward this behavior, or you’ll be in their paws forever after.
That’s why I never give my cat treats when she follows me into the kitchen, because she knows the treats are there, and sits, staring, anticipating, while I eat.
If I do that, she’ll expect it every time, so I turn my heart into cold, hard stone.
I give her treats 5 minutes later, when she can’t associate one thing with the other any more.
