Since ancient times, cats have lived next to humans. And if earlier furry pets were tamed mainly in order to get rid of the ubiquitous rodents, now cats are widely kept as pets. This is not surprising. Purrs are quick-witted, clean, it is a pleasure to watch them. In addition, they can be taught various commands to please loved ones by arranging a small circus show at home.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way to teach a cat commands based on its habits. For example, all cats can stand on their hind legs. You can develop this skill. Take a piece of food in your hand and lift it above the cat's head. At first, keep the food not very high so that the pussy can easily reach the treat. Then lift higher and higher, and slowly step back. The cat will follow you on its hind legs. Gradually, you can teach the cat to walk just with an outstretched hand, and give tasty pieces after the end of the number.
Step 2
You can also train the cat to walk like a snake between the owner's legs. Striped pets are very fond of caressing a person's knees. Catch the moment when the cat is next to you. Extend your right leg forward, lowering your hand with the treat to knee level. When the cat passes underneath, place your left foot forward and repeat the process with food. It will take very little time for your pet to understand what is required of him.
Step 3
It is very easy to train your cat to bring a ball. First, tie a rope to the toy and get your pet interested by rolling the ball across the floor. When the cat begins to grab it with its teeth and paws, slowly take away the toy, treating the purr with a treat. In this case, you need to say "give me the ball." Repeat several times. Then drop the ball close to you. Tell the cat "give the ball". If the fluffy kid obeys you, reward him with delicious food.
Step 4
Cats also learn to give their paws very quickly. Sit next to your pet. Take your front paw in your hand, while saying "give paw". If the cat does not pull out the limb, praise her, pat her on the head, give a treat.
Step 5
Remain calm while teaching your cat different commands. Act with affection, you should not use force in any case. Cats are very wayward animals and, in response to rudeness, they can scratch, bite, and, of course, refuse to fulfill any of your requests. Better to go for the trick. Teach your cat the numbers before breakfast, lunch or dinner when the pet gets hungry. Then, to deserve a long-awaited treat, the cat will follow any of your commands.
