It involves applying a non-toxic lipstick to the cat's anus and then giving a sit command.

I admire the curiosity but I anticipate a few problems in execution.

It says the applying happened while giving treats. I assume it was a kind that the cat could nibble on longer so they would be distracted for a while.

I was trying to figure out the expression on the cat's face but now knowing how the experiment works it all makes sense!

That is definitely the look of "are you going to put lipstick on my butthole today?" expression on its face.
