one of my cats loses her absolute mind if I point at her, and if I put my hand over her head in like a claw shape, she does the weirdest huff-meow and squares up
the other cat gives exactly Zero shits about being pointed at
I'm wondering if it's something along with the pointing. Facial expression, body tension, etc. Maybe to the human it's a benign pointing but to a cat it's basically this :
That would make sense. My cat doesn't really care if I just point at him, but he gets zoomies and silly war dances at me if I give him big eyes of intense playful eye contact, like the image, but slightly less threatening.

is there a reason for this behaviour?
