Cats are very smart and trainable, so don't let the kitties fool you! My cat sits, stays, walks on a leash and does tricks.

Don't let the cat train you! I set strict feeding times so my cat doesn't think if he wakes me up early he'll be fed.

When I first got my cat, he didn't want to be picked up and now he begs to be picked up and hugged and he loves belly rubs. Start with affection on their own terms and go a bit further each time.

Have a great time with your new pet!
