Cats: No waking, no scratching, no puddles, no begging for food - sometimes.
Dogs: I don't play with them often enough to have a pattern.
Children & Teens: I don't usually discipline them, though I've modded out making messes. I do have them do their homework promptly, though not always work on projects. Otherwise, I try to focus on Empathy from the Parenthood pack, because it's one of the hardest to raise, and because I think it's more important than Manners. I'd focus on responsibility, but enough days of doing homework, going to school, and feeding the cats takes care of that.
When I do discipline them, it's usually "Firm" with things like "express disappointment." Probably because that was most effective in raising my own kid (who graduated with High Honors from college this summer) and I was never an authoritarian parent.
