"I knew I was getting a deaf cat so I trained these two" wow this is so responsible! I know most pet owners won't even bother helping their new pet to adapt to it's new home.

[@MrJohn1966elliott]

I'm Deaf. My Cat is name is Tom The Tabby, He's hearing (Not deaf cat) He is very smarter. He knew , I'm Deaf........ I was sleep. Tom the Tabby licked my face , I wake up for ready for my work.

Thanks for sharing this with us dear. You have an amazing kitty!

It's 2am...why am I here...I have work in the morning, why do I keep clicking and watching videos. GOD DAMMIT AMY YOU DID IT AGAIN!

[@RibbitHopX]

lol They sure know the sign for 'more' when it comes to food.

[@MrNobody-gi3gj]

If ya would have watched the video..... The white cat is deaf

[@francklie6568]

Yes and so is the lady, she's wearing earing aids

[@growing_paynes]

I worked at the shelter where Bambi was adopted! So lovely to see this all these years later

[@kathyshangraw1237]

I thought that was awesome, in my opinion cats are very smart.

[@stormwatcher1299]

So adorable!

[@KhademalUmmah]

Reinforcement would be more effective it if was faster for each cat right after each prompt.

[@franksworld9922]

They are soo eager to please her.

[@ulmeulme]

beautiful cats

[@pliedtka]

Bobcat is so pretty, what a handsome guy

[@shgstewart4674]

I adore Bobcat's giant green eyes! And I have a cat very like Bambi except he's all white and not deaf.

[@LynneR6]

The cats aren't doing anything unusual! Any cat will reach out with its paw if offered food! She's assuming too much. If you want to see a cat doing true sign language see the man with the kitten. It touches its mouth with its paw to ask for food.

[@user-wk4iw8gt8r]

ikr

[@aadams1006]

+Lyn Jazz She's basically just holding the treats out, then grabbing the cats' paws to make them do things.

[@jodasom]

+Mocha Latte They all have to start somewhere. Even when training a dog, you start with the treat in you hand at first.

[@Spookspek]

I misread the title as "Singing Lasagna with Cats"

[@fionawilliams940]

i am soooooo impressed

[@musicgraze]

Your the only one i found who has the purrr-fect video

[@flowerway3696]

Fantastic......

[@fionawilliams940]

fantastic

[@cassadanielle]

wow...so cool...

[@690169016901]

I think the cats just follow the hands cus they have food in them. Sorry cats are smart enough to make you think you are training them. That's the magic of cats

[@taztagz]

bobcat,is a cat truck. if you play gta4 you will get why i say that

[@bwibwi5]

What breed is Bobcat? :3

[@DFRKR]

No offense but it doesn't look like sign language just looks like trained cats you know like when you give them treats for doing things and then they just start doing it cuz you see every time they move they then start fighting each other for treats but it's okay you know when a deaf person can interact with animals and do it in a way that's comfortable for them you know I make them feel good so that's all good but I can just hear these are trained cats it's not like they ask you understand what you're sayingit's no different than with words you know they don't actually understand you but they do understand that you just say certain things and those things use your results and something happening so they just react and the way that you want based on how you reacted in the first place

[@samsnoff8913]

Nice, but if feeding treats i consider them pure poison - IMHO

[@kyleadejarnatt3871]

My untrained cat does all of these. O.O cute, still. :3

[@jodasom]

+Kylea Miller Wonderful! I would love to see that video.

[@EclecticLensYT]

Nothing special here.. It's not likely what the title of the video suggests but cats are smart.... when they feel like it.

[@EclecticLensYT]

Lucas Edwards To clarify some: My two cats respond just like her's but I don't use sign language I've simply used the same hand gestures instead of verbal commands since they were kittens and in the beginning rewarded them with treats. Now I don't need the treats but it kinda looks like she might or at least I get the impression her cats expect them. Oh, and to get their attention I simply snap my fingers once for regular twice if they've been bad. They seem to know the difference. I do talk to them, it's just not how I "command" or get them to do what I want.

[@scottblanks]

I'm not impressed.

[@j3sper]

Let's not confuse body language with rehearsed feeding habits; if you make them used to getting treats when you do certain gestures with your hands, they will assume they are getting treats. Roll the camera, remove the treat and it looks like a handshake, which it isn't of course as the cats have no notion of what it means to humans. I like your cats, but they might as well have been dancing bears.

[@smithjarrod3935]

of course not silly. all animals are trained with food dogs horses too. people as well. I can get anybody to come over if I say Im cooking. He he

[@BorisCr]

I think the cats have trained her well...

[@tjfSIM]

Ha ha yes so true!

[@philliplopez8745]

BorisCr they domesticate us !!!

[@noorazmi2329]

I think the camera trained the cameraman to train the cat to train the food so the food can train the lady.

[@JL-ro6xg]

@@noorazmi2329 this is a lame joke . If I were you, I would delete my KZbin account

[@themagyarfiucska]

Cats are more intelligent than most people think.

[@redmoon9650]

NB Agree, most people think cats are dumb and can't be taught anything.

[@user-wk4iw8gt8r]

cats are cunta and only come when they need something

[@77Catguy]

+Vojo samo napred False! Go to a cat shelter some time--you'll find cats will want to come up and cuddle without expecting anything else!

[@greatestever8825]

+77Catguy Your RIGHT

[@xMourningStar]

+NB Yep. Taught mine to sit. And come when I clap for her. She's always within hearing distance, she doesnt wander far :)

[@TheTraveler980]

While this is real sign language, you don't really need it to teach cats that any certain gesture means something. I once had a cat who interpreted me punching a wall as a sign that there are rodents in the walls... and it was right. Every time I found a rodent like a rat, I punch the wall it hid in, and my cat would never fail to eventually catch it and kill it. Rest in peace, you wildcat, you.

[@JackDLong]

the cat was deaf.

[@marcosilse9019]

Correct. Those cats DON'T speak SL or understand it. They will never be ABLE of that. The only one who speaks SL I. The video is the lady. Don't confuse people. Cats have an own language as ANY animal but it is not human one THOUGH they can understand certain signals (not SIGNS but can coincide sometimes) as "FOOD" "STREET" or any instinctive thing that they use to like, cause the signal is linked just right after to the positive consequences. That s all. And Pavlov already talked about it for sure. The rest is human fantasies. If you see ...you can appreciate the video doesn't show a single glimpse of how cats produce a single sign. Furthermore the human SPEAKS. The animals cannot TALK human language. And LSE IS human language. Full stop. Now put me the gorilla speaking LSE ok. .

[@marcosilse9019]

@@BLUE-dw4tc what I mean is that cats can't perform SL. Just .and just maybe cause I already knew that video - imitate a couple of gestures in order to get food But that is not a ls repertory at all. not even a language but a comunication system/way just for very concrete scenario. Anyway...it's really funny and odd to see the cat performing "food" sign (if that is not a trick of camera ).

[@edwardstawarz6705]

My wife and I trained our two brussels griffon dogs to sign right paw please..left paw more..bedtime both paws..they learned 80 different words you haven't lived until your dog tells you it's time for bed please..

[@kokoro2542]

I'm not sure if this is exactly sign language, it seems more like the lady just conditioned her cats to do certain things for treats.

[@kainitzel6876]

KKR it is real sign language. I just never thought I'd see it with cats

[@HikariKunkawaii]

+Faith Nitzel Its not sign language dumbfuck

[@kainitzel6876]

It actually is. I'm fluent, so I strongly advise you not to challenge me on something I've know for 7 years

[@adriana5286]

Same =T

[@bdf2718]

The cats conditioned the lady to waggle her fingers then give them treats. Cats do this sort of thing all the time.

[@AaAa-uc5zw]

I don't think these cats are signing. She basically taught them a lot of tricks. I have taught my cat some cool tricks and this is exactly what it looks like.

[@Khris0221]

How awesome is this?! And how wonderful is this woman who took the time to train her cats so she could communicate with ALL of them - bravo!

[@CourtneyLachiver]

Bambi is beautiful! I love her markings!!

[@Mimiann]

I got to enjoy seeing a mother and her 6 month baby (both human) speak using American Sign Language. They were both hearing, but the baby could not speak yet; however she could understand her mom and was able to sign a few ideas. There was a lot less frustration for both because the baby could express what was bothering her. Pretty Amazing!

[@lesliemurray3543]

What exactly is the sign you're using for "come"? I'm not familiar with that version but I love it. I've started using two commands with my own cat and she's responded faster than I expected, so I'm excited to try more signs with her! Thank you for this wonderful video!

[@tieember9596]

I love how she's like "stay" and the cats just keep sitting on the counter staring her. Like, they were already doing that, lmfao

[@purrbox7514]

Cats are motivated by the acquisition of food. You can teach them loads of tricks but they will only participate if there's a reward. To keep them interested you need to start the tricks very simple. If the effort is too great the cat will give up and obtain easier food sources elsewhere.

[@Xiollele]

Omg Bobcat is so cute

[@havencat4268]

are the other cats breed mancoon?

[@marthamorgan-silva6271]

Yes

[@KATinBLACK]

I help a few strays some of which are very vocal and some are mute but not deaf. They are very observant and take cues from my hands and body language so in turn I am observant as well and take cues from them too. They are intelligent, they just don’t speak the same language as us. Sign language or gestures is a nice middle way

[@sgts75]

We just got a white cat and maybe think he is deaf! Been trying things to do to help.

[@debisafish]

Hi my cat is deaf. How would I teach my kitten the word treat? Is it the same sign as food?

[@bubi8809]

Beautiful

[@normabrown4244]

I am so shocked at how much you and I look alike!! Sooo cool!!! And I also am a cat lover!!! I have never thought about teaching my kitties sign language!! That is really awesome!! I have 7 cats. I just recently found out that my Bear bear has LPS. It's devastating. I love my cats so much!! They are my babies 💕

Could you help me? I want to teach my cats the "eat" sign so they do it back to me if they want the food I'm offering

[@saraswatih9703]

This is more like tricks than sign language. The cats are reacting to the gestures as would do any cats

I am confused, if they are deaf why are they talking to eachother?

[@filipmajetic1174]

the white cat, bambi, is the deaf one

[@laurajohnston3517]

The lady is hearing impaired. She is wearing one if not two hearing aids and if you listen to her she speaks like she has hearing loss or was/is deaf. Bami the white cat is also deaf.

[@debbiethemadbee]

+Laura Johnston there might have been someone behind the camera signing to her too.

[@amaccoy]

[@ironwox]

it feels like animal cruelty to me. forcing the cats to do meaningless tasks (to them) for food.

[@seeyoutomorrow3320]

Ironwoox Well, as long as she isnt starving them or hitting them or basically harming them, it aint animal cruelty

[@purrbox7514]

We all have to do meaningless tasks for food, I.e. go to work for 8 hours a day. I'm sure these cats aren't going to be traumatised for doing a few minutes work.
