Sounds more like you need an exorcist vs pet control.
I had a cat who made sure you knew what he wanted and then he bit as punishment for disobedience. I considered them love bites mostly - they didn’t break the skin. He knew how hard to bite and only leave bruises.
If I talked in the phone and ignored him instead of becoming a trapped cat masseuse, he would nip my ankle. If I ignored him, he just chewed on it until I did what I was supposed to.
Once I was leaving over the back of my husband’s easy chair giving him a hug and kiss, and got a sharp nip on my butt for possibly not holding Mr T first in my life.
Mr Twisty (Oliver J Twisty-Kat) was a normal (mortal) cat. Miffy is obviously a demon incarnate.

Even normal cats are more intelligent than we realize! Many cultures have legends about how wise, supernatural, and even dangerous older cats can become, as in this case: https://yokai.com/bakeneko/

All of my pets learn to speak to me over time. FouFou actually explained that she appreciated the effort putting together a $60 cat tree for her, but she really preferred the 20-year-old chair she was shredding. This was accomplished with meowing and behavior, kind of like you would do in a foreign country when you don’t know the language. I think they guess I am trying to understand, so they try harder to be understood.
Don’t even get me started on chickens, or a horse that loves practical jokes! 😂❤️

My cat used to wait at the front door all day so we can go roaming the apartment halls together. I had to tell him many times we cannot go out during the day when people are walking around but we can go around 11 pm. he learned i guess, now he just waits there from 10-11 so I can take him. god i love him so much
