With the help of your tutorials (and your clickers) I trained my cat to sit, sit pretty, spin, roll, jump and give the paw. Every other week I check in to see if she remembers it and she does! I'm so amazed ❤

I have my 2 boys jumping through a hula hoop, over an obstacle, going to their mats, jumping into a milk crate, jumping up onto a storage chest, getting down, giving a high five, sitting, touching a high target, and I even had one jumping in his travel crate. I had to take him to the vet and got him to jump in....once! Since then I've got him back to touching the side of the crate as he wouldn't go near it for ages! Ha! It's good fun and bonding for us all. Thank you so much for teaching us!

My cat did it once with a figure singular at the beginning I had to use delectables to guide him but after a few minutes he just sat there and stared and he tries to go under sometimes
