Hit 100 video calls with my cat crashing and finally lost count

I started tracking back in March when my cat Mittens jumped on my keyboard during a client meeting. Last Tuesday I hit 100 interruptions on my tally sheet. That number surprised me because I thought I was maybe at 50 or 60. It mattered because I realized my cat is basically part of my remote work setup now. She has a sixth sense for when I'm on a call vs just browsing. I even started leaving a decoy keyboard next to me so she messes with that instead. Has anyone else hit a weird milestone like this with their pet? What was your number?

Honestly, "lost count" is the part that got me. 100 video calls is crazy but then losing track of the actual number makes it even funnier. I bet Mittens has some kind of secret WiFi signal that pings her the second you hit "join call." The decoy keyboard idea is genius though, I might have to try that with my dog who just starts whining the second I talk to someone.

Had a cat once that learned to unplug the router during my calls.
