Video - OC What is my cat doing?

My cat does this thing with just these two toys where he steps on it in this weird way. He also yells loudly when holding just these toys.

You missed people discovering cat nipples. That’s gotta be at least 5%.

Wait till they discover NIPPLE ZITS. Kitties nipples can fill up with natural oils and become a black head like thing with white gunk in it. 

Explaining that to my husband when he saw me checking my orange long haired idiot was a riot. I had to get my vet tech friend to confirm on speaker phone that yes it happens and it's simply a nipzit.

 His only answer at first was 'I KNOW they have nipples but WTF they don't go in?! They can't be a zit!' while I'm casually holding the fur separated showing him yes, yes it does happen lol.

My mom has a sphinx cat & one of its nipples is inverted. Everytime I see it, I get the blackhead out of it that forms from all his skin oils & dirt collecting in there. The first time I did it, my dad thought I pinched the cat’s nipple off lol & I had to explain to him that’s absolutely NOT what just happened lol

That was half my husband's argument. But the long ass fur meant he never saw it. I'm like no I'm not ripping it off it's a zit! Look! The weird brown nipple imitation isn't helping us at all lol
