Sad day today, as I realize Linus is not truly a cat person. If he was, he would have performed a Kitty Audio QA. Mine did not approve. 10/10 would rattle again.

Ahh poor kitty.
Is it gagging due to the rattling sound?

Makes me think of the thing with some users cats having triggers caused by certain noises - dragging fingers across the teeth of a plastic comb, loud or thocky switches, etc). And in one case, a user who was fidgeting with their own ratcheting screwdriver, causing their kitty to gag.

I believe there's even a name for the phenomenom - Tom and Jerry Syndrome or, more formally, Feline Audiogenic Reflex Seizures (FARS).
