How To Train Your Cat: Beginners Start Here

- I've made it easy to start training your cat with this beginner series. In the first part of this cat training tutorial, your cat will learn to follow a finger target. In the second part, you will use the finger target to guide your cat over a leg jump. Consider this a warm-up series that you can start even before you get your clicker training tools. Watch the end where I have my first session with a neighbourhood cat named Tego. When I'm training my cat Jones, I substitute the clicker for a verbal market, 'YES'. When I'm out with Tego, I'm making a clicking sound with my mouth. Both are fine for this easy tutorial, but when we work on more precise tricks, like high five, you will need your clicker training tools.

Hey what treats should I buy?
Here's our video on treats: ruclips.net/video/daOFeFkyuMQ/видео.html
@@CatSchool thank you so much
My cat LOVES Whiskas Temptations.
I use greenies for training because those are a bit better for cats to eat in bigger quantities.
@@emberpawthefox3626 I have the cat who made "finicky" seem like an understatement. She loves the Whiskas but when it comes to food, all she wants is to lick the gravy off of any wet food. She's bad but so blasted cute. I also think her previous owners must have been very abusive so I've been giving in to her which might not be right.
I would like to train my cat to go and buy his own catfood put it in his own dish and when he’s done washes own dish and put it away
😭😭😭
i don't think that's possible but good luck bestie
That would have been pretty bad, like im the type of person that pretty much like taking care of animals like badly, i just spoil them
I will teach her to do my homework
How's it going? Any success?
Title is misleading, but the human is well trained, this cat has some good human training skills
Lol😂
The human is so well trained that the training still works when they’re in company of another cat!
well played almost hated you bad..
HAHAHA
Lol 😂
"MOM, THAT LADY CAME BACK AND SHE'S TRAINING OUR CAT AGAIN!!"
"Oh my god BRYAN CALL THE COPS!!!"
LOL! (Thank you, I needed a good laugh today...)
@@cynthiac.9368 Hope things get better!
Lol!! That's happen to me before!
i just tried this on my cats a few min ago. theyre not trained at all and it worked!!! thank you!
Awesome, thanks for sharing!
Wow brilliant
Ok now I must train my cat
Wait they're not trained!??!??
From her behavior, we thought our cat would be hard/impossible to train. But, this video worked like a charm, and now she reliably chases our finger.
Just tried this today and it worked so well. Adopted my adult cat a few months ago and she already knows the sit command, so I figure she’s trainable. She loved this, picked up on it super quickly, and purred the entire time!
That's great news!
@Jeff Washington And you're very stupid to not know that cats are trainable animals.
How old? I think it's great that you adopted an older lady. Congratulations to both of you!
And then we have my cat, who is always actively searching for treats, even when there are none 😂 And when I accidentally drop one single treat, he comes sprinting towards it like it's life depends on it ... Even when he is in a completely different room lol
thats like my kitten lol. its the same as yours
Mine to.😅
This is definitely the best channel for cat training out there. I already taught my cat to give me a high five with your help! Jones is really cute and I hope to see more videos
Jones is working hard to get you some more content. Stay tuned!
Jones looks like my cat Jasper, but Jasper has a white diamond on his neck/chest
Do I need a clicker?
One of my cats picked up really fast on how to sit wait and come before i found this channel. The other cat is a little slower to learn so finding this channel really helped! thanks!
The way you give the cat the treats is so smooth! 😊
i just wanted to thank you once again for these amazing videos. i've started training with my cat about a month and a half ago and she can follow finger, sit, fist bump and jump in an arm hoop in sequence for just one treat! every time i post a video of her on twitter it blows up! she is not a very cuddly cat so this is has been an enormous bonding experience for us that we hadnt even known was possible. thank you so much!
I'm so happy to hear you are enjoying the training.
This is so straightforward and simple yet helpful I love it
Thanks for all your videos! Me and my cat appreciate them!
:) thanks
Can’t believe how fast my cat learned this. He loved it! Can’t wait to spend more time with him and teach him new tricks
Wow i never been so excited!!! This is such a great video love love love it!!!
Can’t wait to try this! Thank you so much for sharing!
I trained my girl to walk on leash jump on shoulder when instructed to get ready for car ride. Every place that had a drive thru she shook everyone's hand. She has alerted me to a seizure. She's better than any Fido I've met when it comes to protection. She recently had a litter of six. Noe time to baby train
Thank you for this tutorial.getting a new cat and a first cat owner as well.i think would help me
Simple and easy . AMAZING VIDEO
Thank you for this valuable information!
First time kitten mom this is helpful. Mine (2.5month old ) keeps getting distracted. I had to use a bunch of treats to find out which one he likes. This has been super helpful. He does this or follows my finger of if I use the tube liquid treat so it’s. Little difficult but I have confidence that he’ll learn.
This was very uselful,thank you
This is fantastic ! Thank you!
My cat can do this now! Usually he doesn't jump at all! Thank you so much🥰🥰
Thank you so much this is so helpful!
Thanks for this video i needed it👍👍👍
GOOD JOB !!!👍👍👍
Thanks! This really helped!
Really works and quick
Thank you!!!! It worked for my cat!!
Cat at the end demonstrating why training cats is a pain 😂 didn’t really feel like it at the end so just sat around ignoring you. I know the feeling.
This actually helped thanks a lot
Just did this separately with my 2 7month old kittens and they were great, first time training them .just did it for 2 mins each coz I know cats get more bored easily than dogs with training. They are both HIGHLY food motivated so it works well for them
I just adopted a cat named Shiloh. I'm so excited to teach him these tricks! Thank you for making this resource available.
His name is actually Big Rick. Please make sure to call him by his correct name from now on.
It really works!
I'm going to try this tomorrow!
Thank you for this! I've been trying to clicker train my 7 year old cat the last few weeks and have only had so-so success. This definitely got her interest and it was very obvious she enjoyed it a lot! I look forward to training a lot more tricks with her! 😃
I'm no expert but I think you should use the clicker with treats at first?
I had 2 kittens given to me in exchange for a cockerel. Though unwanted at the time they were super cats. I trained them as I would a puppy. Lots of praise and love but strict boundaries. Many of my friends couldn’t get over that they would come, sit and lie down when commanded.I loved them to bits and they both lived long lives.
I tried this today for the first time with my kitten and it worked!! We’re going to keep working on it but this is really great!
Thanks for sharing :)
Will start today
You’re awesome and a pro in teaching cats
I see your videos because I have a cat Prussian white and it’s name is macs
Wow this is so easy...I tried this to my kitten only for 5 minutes and he learn so fast😍😍Thank you very much...now my cat go to me so fast when I do this to him🤩😘
But can you tell me what is the easiest treatment to the cat bite..bcz while I was training him he accidentally bite my finger but it was so small😁
thanks for this video i recently taught my girl how to play fetch with this snake thing and it’s the cutest, i didn’t think anything of it until i started showing ppl they said i should train her more to teach her other tricks so that’s why i’m watching this to see what else to teach her ;)
Thanks so much 🐈🐱🐈⬛😻
some of these hacks work thanks
Your cat is very smart!
Thank you so much you are so awesome and so sorry to other cat trainers but you are simply the best. A cat visits me often and I really want him to stay a little longer and this has been awesome because after he eats he leaves 🤭🤣 thank you again
Thank you.
I tried it and it only took 5 minutes! so happy!
oh I love to see the street smart cat! Lovely video, thank you from Germany!
Thanks for the note :)
I have a new cat and decided to train it well I hope to do it
My cat knows a lot of words already and he does 'boop' his nose to my finger if i put it out. I tried all of these steps just now and was able to et him to follow them all!! He even jumped over my leg about a foot and a half off the ground following my finger!! (I only did that 2ce so he didn't get sick of it and lose interest in the training, though.) I know it is going to be important to have these foundational building blocks even if he picks things up quickly cause of other stuff I've just happened to teach him... Looking forward to trying more!
Thanks a million ... it actually works . 🤩🤩🤩🤗🤗🤗😙😀😀😻😻😻😻💐💐
I like Tego when you're trying to get him to go over your leg... he's like "yeaaaahhhh... I'm thinking about it....." typical cat...
Don't forget to mention to figure out what treat your cat really likes before starting the training.
Yes, last time I walked inside the pet store, asked for the best food no cat can resist, and all they showed me was this shell with lots of stuff. Ended up buying the most expensive one, but my cat can never be fooled.
Thanks. 👏👏👏
Great video! Thank you! ❤️🐾
Thanks for the note!
thank you so much. =)
thanks
Thats a good beheavior to start training
I love your cat
Yesss!!!
3:08
cat: *am i Live or is she recording* i better be like a good cat
You are really a good treaner
Amazing video! You are the best youtuber on RUclips!
Awww appreciate it!
why does this make me cheer the cat she's teaching
I only want channel to train cats, this is very very good channel thankyou
Yessssss
Thats a beautiful black cat just like my boy❤
Great video. I'm wondering about the hissy-sounding "Yessss." Maybe I missed it somewhere, but why is that a good sound to use? I would have thought it was too scary, since hissing is usually a sign of aggression.
I would love to train my cat
would it take a few days or weeks between the stages?
Little quiet, but AWESOME VIDEO!
Hey! I just wanted to let you know that I love your channel keep it up !
Thanks for the feedback!
good evening. I visited your website. I spent alot of time there. I am going to get a cat very soon. My question is what age is it best to start training? I wanted to start the membership but, idk when
Um the The first trick my cat after a tree treats thrown on the ground he found a piece of fluff and he thought it was a treat and then he ate
Hahahhaha I have that problem when brushing my cats. I give them treats for it and sometimes they will try to eat the little fur balls I remove from the brush during it because they smell the treats on them 🤦🏻♀️
Tonight my car picked up in 5 mins how to sit and now he is sitting on command and also tonight he is going to a blanket and sitting...I might be biased but I think I have a very clever cat
I am going to use the clicker to teach my cat to finger follow. Do I understand correctly that I click at the same time that I drop the treat (which I only do once he has correctly completed the trick)?
Wonderful!
Just a quick question.
Could you let me know what is the breed of Tego?
It seems like the Indian Cat breed.
Please let me know if I am wrong 🙂
I unintentionally trained my cat to jump up on the chair and put his paws out for treats ahahahahah
what treats are you using here?
My male cat used to gorge on his food, so I searched for tips online and placed the food in a smaller recipient which I placed in the original food container. When he learned he couldn't beat the difficulty he gave up and changed his behaviour lol
Where can we get the clicker?
When can I start training my kitten? :) He is 12 weeks old. Loove your channel!!
She is using the best flipflops of all times: Havaianas
I have 2 cats any suggestions on how to train them together or should I train them separately? When I put one cat away the one I'm training is distracted looking for her sister, and when I have them both out she assumes all the treats are her sister's and just sits there even when I'm speaking right to her.
How many days does it takes to train??? Didn't start to train til now
Question - I tried this method but my cat swats me when I put my finger on the ground. Any advice??
Hi, what would be the best approach to train both my cats at the same time? Apply the same principles and reward both or train individually?
Teach each cat to stay at a parking spot. One cat gets rewards for staying at the spot while you work with the other cat. Give each cat a turn at practicing their stay and the skill you are working on.
My cat is an adult cat is it harder to train them as adults or kittens?
Any suggestions about training with wet treats? My cat won't touch solid foods or treats. And with a paste-pouch-thingie, I think se doesn't get the idea of following my finger
not sure if you got a response but teaspoons of it has the same effect :)
if i already have a clicker can i click instead of yes?
Will this work to keep them off my kitchen counter?
My boyfriend and I are adopting a kitten from a farm as soon as they are ready to go! We never imagined we’d own a cat, we’ve been wanting a golden retriever for the longest. I’m going to explore all your videos. I don’t know if it’s really possible to train a cat like a dog “sit, speak, paw, fetch my beer” but I’ll do my best
Be careful buying from farms..
F-ffetch my beer?
All of those commands are possible except “Fetch my beer.” But you can train them to fetch a toy or a sock
Do u ever use a clicker? Just curious to what highs can cats learn. My girl did react everytime I pointed a finger. Shes super smart. I'm going to keep It up. She loved the back and forth treats 🍬🐈😻
thank you so much for your amazing videos!! could you make a video teaching how to train a cat to feel safe in the carrier? I adopted my cat when he was already an adult and I think he has a trauma with the carrier and going to the vet. he gets very aggressive and it's really frustrating. I'd love to know how to make the experience more comfortable for him. thanks!
I will add it to the list :)
Cat School this would be a great video! It’s been 9 months since the comment was posted. I’ll be searching for it.
Bonitas havaianas kkkkkkk quero viajar com meu gato, vou começar a treinar ele
Hi, Julie! What treats do you use?
Here's is a video where I talk all about my favourite treats: ruclips.net/video/daOFeFkyuMQ/видео.html
Exactly how long should it take for a cat to learn to do this without treats?
