:D :cool: I taught Baby Kitty a trick!She's so smart, I was gonna give The Boyer some deli turkey cuts at midnight(Im a night owl, homeschooled so...*shrug*) 'cause I felt sorry that "Ole Cat McCrabb" had to eat dry kibble, and they both jumped down to the floor and hopped around. Sawyer got his share of turkey, but it ended out being me trying to experiment with tricks..and I decided to try "Sit." she sat, and she got her reward, and she does it without the turkey and without saying 'sit'! Just a finger que...well, I guess maybe it's not to amazing to you, but my family thinks it's really cool.:)

Yes, I think that this is pretty impressive. I don't think that cats learn tricks very easily at all. It's not in their nature to learn tricks and to keep doing the tricks without a reward (food!).
Dogs will learn a trick and keep doing the trick just to please you. That's not a cat, LOL!
The only "trick" my cat, Elvis knows is to come to me when I talk in the baby voice and make kissie sounds. Even so, he comes because he knows he's going to get "lovies". He also goes crazy when he hears a can being opened, but that's not a trick...he just thinks he's going to get tuna! :rolleyes:
Make no mistake, I firmly believe that our cats love us! :) They're just not push-overs! They will NOT do what they don't feel like doing, LOL!

I agree, I think she just does it for the loot, cause at times she raises her paws to try and get it if I hold it up high.:rolleyes: But the Kittler is a Cuteler, and so are the whole menagerie(not the cage part, for all those with very educated vocab) o' furbabies....Dapher learned how to 'roll', but just because we flip her over when we wipe her muddy paws from outside. Mom took this and with excited voice and 'roll' motion finger cue, on her back she flips.:)
