Clicker Train Your Cat To Balance On Their Back Paws

  • I call it "sit pretty", but you might have another name for when you cat balances on their two back paws. This is a great exercise for your cat. Allow your cat to take the time they need to build the core strength to hold this position. Sit Pretty is a foundation behaviour for the double high five, so don't skip this one :)!
    Happy training!

    "Stand" was the first trick my kitty learned after sit! Whenever she greeted me she would 'stand up' on her back legs for me to scritch her head better and since it was a behaviour she already naturally did a lot it was a great entryway for us.

    Love your videos, Julie. I have just taught my black void cat how to sit pretty in less than 10 minutes. It fills my heart to see my cat thinking and then getting the command.
    Also, after introducing your techniques, cutting her nail has been fun and a bonding moment instead of a struggle.
    I absolute love your content and I'm rooting for the growth of the cat school aka your business. I think it could be a good idea as a promotional content for your channel if you did reviews of viewers training videos and provide coaching of their training techniques.
    Love and kisses to Jones.❤

    I was hoping you may offer some advice. I’ve been using your videos to train my new kitten (about 3-4months now) and we’ve been making great progress. I have a vacation that was scheduled before that I’m not able to bring her with. I have a good friend checking up and spending time with her while I’m gone each day…. But I’m super worried that the bond and all the training I worked hard to create will get destroyed with me being gone for 10 days. Do you have any advice or idea about this subject? Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

    • @CatSchool
      @CatSchool  3 роки тому +1

      Try using a lickable treat. If you are using dry treats, after you click, raise your cat back up to feed the reward in the Sit Pretty position. If your cat knows that the food is delivered in that position, they will be more likely to stay there. If neither of these suggestions works, please consider joining our online class to get support.

    My cat knows sit, paw, jumping through hoops and he comes when I call but when I tried this he almost attacks my hand to get the treat and always grabs my hand with his paws, I can seem to get him to stay in the upright position, any tips? We’re also having a little bit of an issue with the high five. When I used the post it for training, he doesn’t necessarily put the paw right on it but rather push it to the side to get the treat, which means when I try it with the hand he does a swiping move instead of putting the paw on it, any ideas there? ☺️ love all your videos! Do you have any tips for fetch?

Loki is a very energetic cat (~2 years old), and highly food motivated, if I give him the treat right where we train I can't continue training my other cat(Thor) that's a little more paced as Loki will snatch the treat from under Thor's nose.

    • @CatSchool
      @CatSchool  2 роки тому

      If you just gave the cat a treat after they landed, they would think they earned a treat for sitting. The clicker takes a snapshot of the action you are rewarding. In this case, the action that earns a treat is going up on two paws. This video explains more: ua-cam.com/video/hRK5CGCreko/v-deo.html
