15: How Do You Train a Cat? Here’s Everything You Need to Know About Their Behavioral Lives
Do you know any cats that can sit on command?
If not, let yours be the first!
In this episode, I am talking to you all about the behavioral lives of cats.
I find that cat behavior is a topic that often gets neglected, but as someone who owns and works with cats, I can tell you that they have very rich behavioral and emotional lives.
We talk all the time about training dogs, so why should it be any different for cats? My cats actually love training sessions! I can hardly get one in with my dogs without my cats coming along to join in with the fun.
Getting really familiar with your cat and setting up a good environment for them is key to making them happy and having success with their training, so we are covering those things in this episode.
