datcat - yep sort of. She knows to stand on two legs like that, go to any place when I tap it twice and as an extention on that trick, to jump between two places as well.
It's easy to train a lot of cats if you go about it the right way. Basically you need to use clicker trainig type of thing where there is only positive reinforcement, no negative reinforcement at all for doing the wrong trick or doing the trick wrong.
Also just praise isn't good enough as motivation, food works best really so if you have atleast a somewhat food motivated cat things will probably go well.
Nikita is a cat with a very big personality and just bursting with energy so I started the trick teaching just to try to help burn off some of her excess energy but it's been useful for photography as well (although she doesn't do stay so I can't get her to sit still in a spot after she's gone to it) |
