Floofturbance (floofinition) – 1. The act of an animal interrupting an activity or a state of calm. Origins: 13th century, Flemish Floofish
In Use: “The summer’s peaceful evening broke up with a floofturbance out front as two dogs staged a bark-off.”
In Use: “Knowing it would gain attention they could leverage for what they wanted to get, the three house floofs comenced a floofturbance.”
2. Disrupting an animal’s repose or usual procedure or order.
In Use: “A glass bowl slipped out of Becca’s hands and fell to the floor, shattering with an ear-splitting sound and created a floofturbance which sent the cats and dogs sprinting in four different directions — except for Arnold, who leaped up and emphatically barked, “Woof,” just once.”
Floofturbance is when you’re engrossed in a book or maybe dozing in your chair and the alpha cat decides to leap onto your lap from the bookshelf 4 feet away!!! Oh yes, I know all about floofturbance! But in fairness, I’ve caused a bit of it for them from time to time, too. Hugs ‘n cheers

Like when you’re fast asleep and your adult children arrive in the middle of the night, but your dog doesn’t know it’s them and sounds the alarm!!

Or, in our case, the cat decides he wants food in the middle of the night and starts pawing us awake and needs to be escorted to the food bowl, which is full.

Sounds like our cats may have gone to the same finishing school, as he does the same. I stir the food, which is kibble, with a finger, to make a noise, and he begins gobbling it up. Crazy. Cheers

Well, as a general rule, humans like to sit down to dinner together; why not cats?
On the other hand, we have an automated dish that has compartments and turns at a designated time so that fresh food is available during his “eating periods,” yet he still wants company. C’est la vie!
