Have you taught your cat?

Quite funny, my new cat likes treats (previous cat didn't) so thought I would try a little training!! (normally cats train you!!)

After about 3 days training, I get a 'HIGH 5' or 'Paw pat' when I'm waving a treat or cat biscuit about! (very comical though cat not daft!!!)

    @fluffycat some cats can be taught to play fetch too, I think it's clever when cats learn these things

    Sorry to hear.

    lost my cat too recently, was getting on for nearly two decades old!
    didn’t want the silence so searched and searched 

    Prices were astronomical and selling like hot cakes! (Rescue homes were empty) 

    finally..... got one kitty just under £100 (rehoming)

    @fluffycat yeah prices have shot up for kittens. I'm not looking yet. I'll probably go for rescue when I do.

    @Sandy_123 and @fluffycat Sorry to hear about the loss of your feline friends.  I'm getting close to saying goodbye to my Frank (15 years old battling cancer) and it's tough going :(

    I haven't managed to train any of my cats so I'm impressed with your antics @fluffycat ! I'm lucky if any of my three grace me with their presence at times other than feeding time!  The little minxes.

    @Sandy_123 It is.  I feel we were so lucky to have had him though and he definitely came into our lives for a reason  <3
