Its not the pencils and pens themselves, its the motion. When you write with a pencil or pen, the motion attracts the cat's attention and it wants to play. Obviously as you are wiggling the pencil or pen YOU are signalling the cat that you want to play, which makes the cat even happier... and that much harder for you to write...

Cats like to play with things that roll around. It's part of their hunting nature. They like the fact that pens and pencils roll around in unexpected ways.

Why do cats have an obsession with pens?

Felines have always been getting into things ever since they learn to see, walk, and bat things with their paws. Sometimes, this can get VERY annoying. The cat, of course, means no harm whatsoever, and of course, it's pretty darn cute. Cats from ages 0 to 21 love to play games; They pretend the object -- Mostly writing utensils -- is prey, and they attack it, bite it, claw it, and just kangaroo kick it until it's pooped out. If this obsession with pens and pencils is annoying you, I suggest getting a scratching post or something!

You would visually recognise a pencil from a pen. You would remove either the pencils or pens, depending on what you want your pencil case to contain. Most probably, you would want a mixture of pencils and pens, so the final choice is yours.
