What a precious girl Maulee is. How luck she is to have a "Cat Mom" who understands what she needs, so well. It is also such an incredibly inspiring story given most people have never heard of clicker training, let alone doing it for a Senior cat! I must admit I surely thought my 8 year old would never go for it. So this is very encouraging. I guess you need to consider clicker training the equivalent of crossword puzzles for seniors!! Great info - thanks Marilyn!

Secondly...the joy and benefits of clicker training with cats is so overlooked by so many. My first experience with successful clicker training was in building trust with Britches...she was abandoned by her former guardians during Hurricane Katrina. Left on her own for four years, fed by a neighbor, but no one could touch her.

We bought "her house", moved in, and realized we had a peeping "Siamese"! She knew this was her home, and she wanted in...looking in the french doors, wandering all around the house.

Though it took about a month, with clicker training I was able to forge a bond, trust and eventual handling of Britches. We estimate that at the time we first "met" her, she was about 9 or 10 years old.

Who knows....maybe clicker training saved her life!

Until next tiime...Annie
