"I would kind of punish the cat"

Having experience with cats, they unlike dogs don't see you as a caring owner and companion. They, sad as it is, see you as a puny, insignificant slave created to serve them for all eternity. No exaggerations included. Punishing the cat would not make them learn a lesson like dogs but just hurt their dignity and cause them to hold a grudge against you. You need to create a sense of authority and power that lets them know you are in charge.
