The cat's accismus was evident when she didn't take the offered food, even though it was clear by her posture she was willing to pounce for it.

My cats can't maintain accismus for more than a minute, before they pounch on it.

It's sort of like how the readers pounce on a new chapter when it's posted.  They find it difficult to disguise their accismus for very long.
