I had felt that cats were independent thinkers, but I hadn't figured out how to explain this to my husband [who is very much a dog person] that our [normal mixed variety, leaning heavily towards siamese/himalayan] fluff isn't just being a jerk when he does things that we don't want him to do. ^_^ At the very least, you've already given me a link to go "See?! She's an expert" with 😛
Thank you!

I'm among the growing number of fiends from the Fabulous Lorraine's blog. I look forward to reading more from you. 🙂 I have an 11 1/2 year old cat that is indoors, and there are three kittens that have adopted our 19 month old Great Pyrenees mix dog that live outside. Maybe she adopted the kittens; I'm not sure which. 😉

Cat Behavior is fascinating... and, yes... it's all about motivation. Doesn't matter if you're a cat or a human, it's all about finding the right motivator.

Sally, I'm sorry to hear about your diabetic cat. Are you giving her insulin? Thank you for passing my blog and site on to your niece.

We've had success with clickers and other methods.

Great start....Cat training has been rather a mutual thing in our family--we learn how to ask/convince/motivate the cat to either do or NOT do certain behaviors, and it seems every cat with whom we've co-habited has had different ways of motivating us to perform the behavior said cat is seeking.

Looking forward to reading your words of wisdom and experience!

I have an almost 15 year old diabetic cat, and have learnt things I never knew since her diagnosis. I'm also going to pass your blog and website on to my niece who is a vet nurse and training up as a dog trainer.
