I will spare you the doings of the past few days, all of which would either involve copious amounts of carpet cleaning, weed control, and TMI (not related), and simply cut to the chase

You're probably tired of being Metaquoted, but that Jetsons passage richly deserves the recognition.
I recommend a lemonade-pitcher of stout, eye-opening Screwdriver. Vitamin C and grain alcohol: Polish that off. Do it Russian style, taking bites of hors d'oeuveres between shots, so you have food on your stomach. You will get squiffed. Make every effort to finish the pitcher. When you've recovered consciousness, your cold will be gone.
Sudden inexplicable hyperactivity is the most mysterious and aggravating phenom amongst housepets. Just be glad you don't have a dog like my mother's. At some point in puppyhood, she developed a psychosis that, upon getting in a car and hearing the ignition start, causes her to hurl her 55 lb self around the backseat, snapping at passing objects and yipping and shrieking like she's been fed LSD and sodomized with a cactus, until the moment the car stops and the engine goes quiet again. I flatly refused to ride in the car with that dog after having her claws rend my shoulders over the front seat mid-flight or her bark deafen me at point-blank range many times over, until we took to latching her in a carrier on car trips, in which she continued her frenetic madness

Let's see... This year we will get The Brothers Grimm, Serenity, Mirrormask, and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Those, plus a couple more I'm forgetting, make it look like a good year for movies.
Water pistol for the cats - every time they start fighting, zap them then ignore them. You don't add to the general tension by yelling and making them even more wound up but they do get a short cold shock and a sudden decrease in dignity when they've suddenly got a flat patch of wet fuzz on their head and drips on their whiskers ;o)
Canned was going to be my suggestion as well. Our cat, a large tuxedo male, leaves no pillow or blanket alone in his search to satisfy his (neutered) sexual desires. A shot of canned air over his head sends him flying.

Excuse my while I laugh my ass off at the incredibly apt metaphor.
What a pain. I will never understand people who have such affection for ill-behaved animals (or children, for that matter).
