It's probably that, this is my hypothesis until the behind the scenes clear it up, they had three cats in order to switch them at time so they wouldn't stress too much.
I'm thinking that maybe Strudel was TOO calm and didn't make enough of a challenge for the players. Chonky cats tend to just sit there and take it. Mayhem was explorative and vocal, meaning less likely to just sit in a stranger's lap.

I suggest a catio, they're fantastic and enriching for feline friends.

You will have so much fun (except for the sleepless nights when they attack your toes under the blanket) 😂
You're now Mom and Dad. Enjoy!
