I’m really into animal training and recently decided I want to train my cat everything I can. After teaching her the “rise” I felt like she was having fun learning just like any other animal.

Plus, the Pets Ahoy! show at Sea World should inspire everyone who has any animal at all! If you have never seen the show, check it out on you tube, but nothing beats seeing it in person!

I got a course called Complete Cat Training. You can find the complete cat training system here. And the cool thing is you get it almost instantly (for those impatient people like me)! I had a few hiccups in getting mine, but it’s 3 PDF downloads and some reading and you are there. Don’t worry, the reading material has pictures to break it up a bit!

This course teaches you how to use operant conditioning, and talks about the differences of postivie/negative punishment and reinforcement and how to apply them with your cat.

Some basic teachings this course covers with your cat:

• Come
• Sit
• Stay
• Jump up
• Twirling
• Stand

Then it has more “advanced” behaviors like:

• Wave
• Shake
• Kiss
• Snuggle
• Crawl
• Retrieve
