- Can paw tricks improve your cat's cooperation with nail trims? Yes, they can!!! In this video tutorial, we break down all the steps to teach your cat to offer each of their paws and build their confidence with you holding their paw for an extended period in preparation for trimming their nails. Not only will you teach your cat the cute paw trick - to shake paws, but you will also improve your cat's comfortability with paw handling. The ultimate goal is that nail trims are a pawsitive experience.
Have fun training!
Julie and Jones

hello! I’ve watched your videos forever now, I’m a bit sad that you haven’t posted in a while! I hope you’re doing well and I can’t wait for more content from you :)
Thank you! I hope to have more time in my schedule next month. Stay tuned.
@@CatSchool thank you very much! my cat and I will be waiting :) but no rush !
Thank you for sharing ways to bond with our cats! These are great videos and I can’t help but wonder how does he not weigh 30 pounds!!!! 🐈⬛
I adopted a 4 year old all-black kitty a month ago who is perfect candidate since he follows me around like a little dog even outside he comes when he hears my voice! So excited to get a clicker!
To keep his weight in check, Jones is mostly trained with a portion of wet food. Have fun training!
Omg I love Jones he’s so adorable, I love blacks cat I have one myself named Nightmare
Yay! Thank you for doing videos like this. Dak and I have missed cat school and really have so much training to get back to trying! Keep up all the awesome work!
I can't wait to try this! First pet ever and I got lucky with such a good boy.
Awesome...
Hi! Can you do a video on how to train your cat to be comfortable for car rides? Or even just travel in general, would love to see that, thanks!!
Hi! Thank you for your videos you have a great way of explaining and expressing clearly exactly how to complete the training . Question- is it possible to skip getting both paws on target and jump to one paw? Or would that not work?
Thankyou for the video! It’s very helpful, I got some questions, do we do 1-2 steps per day or we do everything on the same day? And my cat keep reaching for my hand when i try to lure her put the other paw off the block 🥲
I’m glad I found your beautiful video ❤cause I have two kittens they are 3 months old and I would like them to always allow me to pet them and carry them ❤
I love your beautiful video and I subscribe to your channel ❤
My cat appears to be loving the paw target training, interesting enough much more than the sticky note training. Can’t wait for the back paw tutorial while we are working on this one! Thank you so much ❤
Question: what is the size of these yoga blocks?
I've never measured them but they are standard size yoga blocks.
Hello! Thank you for this detailed video. Do you have any suggestions on how to manage teaching when there are 3 cats in the house ?
Check out this blog post: www.catschool.co/blogs/clickertrainingcats/clicker-training-two-cats-together-or-even-more
Can you pls make a video of how to train multiple cats at once
Your cat school is great, you still doing this? I am interested in doing all this with my cat. I live out in Alaska and would love to take him on hiking trails with me.
Hello Julie, and thank you for your videos. Forgive me asking this question here. I did look at all your video titles and didn't see this one.
If I have two kittens, how do I focus on one kitten to train while the other may be around?
Would I temporarily crate the one and focus on the other?
Thank you for any advice - and if you addressed this in a video, please accept my apologies.
Please check out this blog post for guidance: www.catschool.co/blogs/clickertrainingcats/clicker-training-two-cats-together-or-even-more
@@CatSchool - Thank you for taking the time to respond.
Is the clicker necessary or is it sufficient to just make a click noise with your mouth? ❤️
I'd love to see cat training for introducing a cat to water. I have an inkling that my black boy cat, Willow, would love to swim or play in very shallow water if he just knew what it was like!
Can you share a roadmap of lessons to progress through from a starting point of just beginning to teach clicker training ... i need a guide to know what to do in the right order

Now how about the back feet 😂
Since they protrude I find it easier to cut without touching their feet too much while they sleep.
That's for another video 🤓
@@CatSchool looking forward to it! Thx Julie & Team
By he backs are the ones my cats doesn't like.
Honest question, how do you feed your cat so many treats without the cat getting overweight? I'm worried to feed that many treats because the package says 12 a day max and 4 is equal to a cup of food.
Is there better treats to feed in excess?
I do a lot of training with my cat's food - either wet food on a spoon or pieces of dry food. You don't need to use a lot of treats to train your cat.
do you have a video for showing cats how to get along?

How old should I start training my baby? She’ll be 8 weeks in 6 days. By another TH-camr I was advised to wait till 12 weeks. What do you think?
You can start training right away but the goal is to focus your training on socialization, which means making sure your kitten grows up to be confident and comfortable in lots of situations/environments: Check out this resource: fearfreepets.com/puppy-kitten-socialization-bingo/
@@CatSchool Thank you! I’ll keep getting opinions before I make a decision. I’ll at least wait till 8 weeks.
@@CatSchool wait, can I introduce (charge) the clicker at the same time?
hey! I don't know if you still check these messages, but I was wondering if you think a cat could be trained to be friendly with my budgie. If so, how could I do this?
Instead of putting one paw on the block , my cat either does both paws or tries to swat my hand with a paw. Any suggestions on how to get the idea of one paw on the block and discourage the swatting?
Same here!! Did you ever figure this out?
Your cat is the exact same as mine that died last year. Every now and then I see a black cat that resembles her exactly, as does yours. Do you happen to know if your cat is a particular breed or what its genetic makeup is? I was always curious about what my cat might have had in her but didn't get her DNA tested. She was just a domestic shorthair according to the paperwork, but I'm open to other ideas because she had a really unique and friendly temperament, and at one point I'd convinced myself that she couldn't merely be a domestic shorthair. Whatever breed your cat is, so was mine, I swear. Do you happen to know?
As far as I know he's a DSH that was found outside. I have never had his DNA tested. Sorry for the loss of your beloved kitty.
My cat doesnt let me touch his paws though
Our cats try to bite when we touch there paws or pull away
I have a cat
Can i give train little baby of cat?
Of course the sooner the better
What if my cat isnt treat motivated

@@CatSchool just watched it. Helped me a lot! Thanks
This actually happened at my high school and I was just around the corner when it happened 😂 except it wasn’t a teacher and a student. It was a couple of students getting into a fight in a narrow hallway (that was pre planned) and one of them pulled out 2 cans of pepper spray 💀
Please my help me
is it okay to wake the cat when she is asleep
