How do your cats earn their keep?

It was just a random thought, but besides the obvious by providing, love, humour and comfort, I was thinking about the practical ways my girls help the household. Mads does so by being fiercely protective of us and not letting strangers near! lol and Bramble licks their bowls clean and keeps our home fly free! lol. So I was wondering, what strange ways do yours have that help out! lol

They help keep me fit as I'm forever getting up to see who has just come thro' the flap. If I can manage 10 minutes undisturbed on my recliner or sofa I've done well.

Buddy warms my bed for me at night, he's always stretched across it and Mary likes to keep the pillows/cushions nice and soft by doing her "pushy paws" on them and keeps my desk dust free by swishing her tail whilst sitting on it.

Moto scavenges anything remotely edible on the floors and informs us that the food bowls are empty. Sophie is the perfect ornament for the window sill. LOL

Rofl! Oh how useful our fluffy babies are! lol
