[@wcsdiaries]

Love these videos! Glad I discovered them. Also, how do you get them to come when you don't have a treat? Like if they are used to getting a treat everytime but you don't have one on you, will that ruin their conditioning and get them to stop coming in the future?

[@suriaj1044]

@Albert & Mia, the Adventure Bengal Cat Excellent Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Alivaay Fluff Talker (google it)? It is an awesome one off product for stopping your cat spraying without the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my good mate called Gray finally got amazing success with it

I can’t wait to train our cat, hopefully getting in in three weeks time!! I also watch a video from a veterinarian saying cats respond to high pitch sounds so naming your cat or having a nickname that ends high is helpful. You can basically say any word that ends high to get their attention.

Man, thank you very much for sharing this knowledge with us, seriously. I was searching which animals could be a travelling companion (aside from dogs, obviously) and I'm really happy that I can train a cat to be one!

[@gilliancurran7830]

I have two cats- Cleo and Bobby. Your videos for me are beautiful to look at and encribly endearing. We lived in an apartment with my husband which we sadly lost but we never taught them tricks. They cuddled and played every day running around a small place. Now they have a big garden with lots of neighbours around with equally big gardens. I think you are fantastic with the amount of love you've put into Mia. My babies run away now for half the day, no interest in me at all! We'll no, the brilliant thing about cats is their individuality. The older one came from a shelter, the younger one a year later from a neighbour. He had 6 siblings so you can imagine the difference in the personalities! Cleo is very refined, a lady while Bobby is a thug! I just wanted to say, I love your and Mia's stories ❤

[@K.G-I.N.F.P.]

[@lvdm9959]

This is so profound. Im starting the new year wit Archi(bald Tobiaz). My late 14yr old learned that a sardine treat was coming when the sound of the tin opener sounded. Where ever he was, he would come running when I used the tin opener...my joy was to give him a treat for all his vigorous expectation.

[@bluemushroomz]

I used to whisper "oscar" in my cat's ear when he sleeps .. less than a week and he recognizes his name

I was so excited to start training my cat! She’s so smart but isn’t food motivated at all so it’s been quite a challenge. Hope to find that video you mentioned about cats not being treat motivated. Thanks!

[@DonnaLena1]

Even if you have a cat that isn’t primarily food motivated keep looking for a treat they can’t resist! I finally tried high quality freeze dried duck & mackerel and it makes all the difference. I break the small pieces even smaller and only use them for training (these treats are not cheap). This has accelerated our clicker training!

[@IfooNoodle-mg2tk]

​@@DonnaLena1 Where do you usually get them from? Do you know the brand?

[@Silvanafromchester]

I have 7 cats who enjoy our back garden in the good weather. They ALL come when I call them whether inside or out. My neighbours are used to hearing me call my cats from my back door. I sometimes give them treats for coming inside but not always. My cats were trained from Day 1 to come when called. They receive pets and hugs and kisses when they come to me. I'm the only cat mum in the neighborhood who does this and no doubt people think I'm odd but I never have to worry about my cats going astray.

I tried this with my cat and it worked very well, he responds to his name now and he comes. I actually was able to trick my cat instead of using treats I used a different type of cat food and it worked, I didn’t have any treats at the time so I just made it work.

Hi Albert, So delighted to come across your channel. I have a 17 month old Silver Bengal who is very sweet but a little cra-cra also.

3:49 this way of interacting with your cat is so similar to how a pet bird is (for example a falcon, or possibly a hawk) supposed to be treated (when tamed)some people made videos about it, and it’s just almost identical relationship wise. Nice video by the way.

also, instead of a clicker, i “clicked” my tongue and it still worked!! so if you’re watching and feeling discouraged because you don’t have a clicker, there’s still hope

[@evertree2133]

Oh my god, you're a genius!! Thank you!

[@catdurrant5694]

I love how much 'Mia' sounds like 'Miaw' when you are calling her

[@andrealucchesi]

Hi Albert, thanks a lot for all your videos. I have a couple of general questions on training. The first is: when can I stop using the clicker (that is, when can I assume the desired behavior is so ingrained in the cat that the association with the sound is not necessary anymore)? And, similarly, when can I stop giving the cat a treat (or doing it only occasionally)? My point is that I wish my cat to come to me whenever I call him, without having to keep a treat available at any time.

[@Cookiekeks]

[@robinharwood5044]

Cats generally learn everyone’s names by just listening to conversations. (They pretend they aren’t listening.) They come when they feel like it.

[@ZeePark21]

My oldest cat responds whenever his name is mentioned in a sentence (e.g. like in a casual conversation). When he hears my sister's voice (specifically), he would keep shouting from the other room because my sister always brings him to our bigger room and bedroom where he plays freely. He can open a cage gate when he was still caged in his kitten years, and knows how to open a human door as well as storage bin. He even tries to articulate words to communicate (usually his name when he calls out from the other room). Cats are more intelligent than we give them credit for. The rest of my cats (7 and 5 months) know their name not by training, but because we talk to them fluently like a house person. They can obviously be trained through treats, but it's best if you talk to them like a person where you can see their natural individual intelligence as months and years go by.

[@jameschan1791]

Heads up, this may be long, sorry! Just wanted to say I appreciate you explaining the purpose behind liking your video. Almost every KZbinr ends their videos with a reminder to like nowadays, but it’s something I’ve tended to ignore because it has often seemed like the sole purpose behind their request was self-promotion. No judgment, if you’re trying to make a living on KZbin, I understand the importance of getting enough views to pay rent (or feed your fur friend 😊). Same with sponsor deals. When I find a KZbinr who seems genuine and honest and whose content I enjoy / think is beneficial, I do want to promote their individual success. But it’s nice to hear you explain that liking also helps other viewers know your video was helpful & helps you reach more people. It sounds like you have thought about a deeper purpose behind your channel, beyond just personal fame/success. It’s awesome to see someone approaching their work with a sense of mission (i.e. cats can be adventure buddies too!) & on a more personal note (please forgive the tangent haha) - as someone who always thought themselves a dog person but stumbled into rescuing a cat first... it’s a mission I really appreciate, since I love being outdoors / camping / adventuring, and want to share that with my lil’ furball. Not just to have a companion, but also to broaden and enrich his shorter time on this planet. Now that we’re thinking of getting a puppy too, le hubz & I are also trying to figure out how to ensure we treat them both with equal care/attention (and maybe even help them become buddies). It would sort-of break my heart to bring our puppy everywhere and leave our cat home alone. All of this is a long-winded way of saying that your videos have been especially helpful for me. & that I appreciate the respect you show to your viewers in explaining the worth of their support to you. Thanks for that. It actually made me pause to like (and subscribe) 👍 Wishing you continued success, haven’t seen another channel like this (Jackson Galaxy is great, but he’s a bit more general, I appreciate your focus on getting cats outdoors). Will be passing along your videos to any cat-owning friendos who need ‘em
