Have you ever clicker trained a cat?

PHChristy Sep 21, 2008 02:35 PM

I'm writing an article on cats and clicker training -- has anyone here ever used a clicker to train a cat, even just to do a single trick? If so, would you be willing to tell me about it for the article? Just post here to let me know!

Thanks!

Hi Christie,

I know this isn't exactly what you have in mind, but I'd like to share a little bit about my cat, Ray.

Ray was born blind and he has also been diagnosed with OCD. One of the things he does as part of his OCD is go around in circles, sometimes fast enough so that he has to lay down. I use a clicker to break this cycle.......he stops circling and immediately comes to me for attention. The clicker also works if Ray is picking on and chasing the girls here.

I would love to include that! Do you have a photo? And I guess I'd need to use your real name, would that be okay?

Email me if you want to discuss this more!
