Clicker Training FOR CATS Tutorial - How to CLICKER TRAIN CAT in 3 steps

- Learn how to teach your cat tricks using clicker training with 3 simple steps.
It only took me one week to start teaching tricks training to Mia, my bengal cat. By using this simple method, clicker training your cat/s can be easy and fast.
A clicker is simply a small mechanical noisemaker. Clicker training is the same as positive reinforcement training. It links classic conditioning with some animal ethology science that says that behaviors that are rewarded are more likely to be repeated.
Instead of focusing on what your cat is doing wrong (which we know will continue to happen), focus your cat's attention on what she or he is doing right.

Hi, great video! Where is the link for the finger training?
Привет круто спасибо за мастер класс 😁👍
i need to stop procrastinating. i don’t even have a cat
hahahahaha this was funny! Thanks for passing by! :P
Isn't that illegal?
Still no cat? That's "procatstinating".
@@arturocaissut1071 beat me to it
🤣🤣🤣
Dude I tried this with my two half-Bengal kittens and it totally works! 6 months in, they can do finger targeting, come when called, sit, lie down, roll over, go into their condo, reach up on their hind paws, and sometimes stay (if they feel like it XD).
I want to clarify one thing he says in the vid which confused me at first: "charging" the clicker. Basically what this means is to associate the sound of the clicker with giving your cat treats. I combined this with teaching them their names, so they would expect something good from me whenever they were called. Basically I just said one of their names, clicked, and gave that one a treat (same for the other) over and over for a few minutes over a few days. Then moved on to finger targeting, sit, and beyond.
You can do this! Cats like to learn and it brings you closer together!
Hi, are you saying you only gave a treat to the one who came? What if they both come? I'm currently trying to train two new kittens. But I'm confused about how to train them both together. When I click for one of them, should I give the other a treat even though she isnt doing anything? Or should I train separately? Its not always easy to train them separately. I dont want to dilute the effect of the clicker by working with one cat so the other hears it and doesnt get a treat. Just need some advice.
@@_____kb totally late reply, but for teaching names it's better to do it separately. Other commands like sit, lay down, etc. is fine to teach to two or more cats at the same time (the cats might even learn from each other!)
How old were they when you started?
I have the same question for two kitties that I plan to clicker train. My idea is to do them separately, at first to get them acquainted with the clicker. Then both at the same time for the other tricks. Would this be a good idea?
Great video. I agree, I think most of the problems people end up having with cats are caused by two things, free feeding and not enough attention.
Thank you! Haha Cat’s behavior explained in 2 lines! :p
Hope it helps someone, even if it’s just a little.
Hi. New subscriber here all the way from Costa Rica. How much food does a cat need everyday? we started to schedule feed but she leaves food so there is food always available... and well, it defeats the point of schedule feeding
@@eltatz If she leaves food give the kitty 1 or 2 mind tell them have u finished? I'll be removing the left food? And if they don't go back to the bowl then remove the bowl as they are full. Don't leave it sitting there. Food goes of when left on the side anyway.
Gd luck xx
And/ or too much attention, as in my cat.
@@eltatz ayyy same! 💖💖💖
Great video! I’ve got a very eager little 6-month old black kittie who’s been acting as my wing-man ever since I rescued him when he was only a few weeks old. He’s smart AF, loves adventures, and definitely ready for this!
My kitty is so chill lol I came to see how to train my kitty only to realize that she does all of the things at the end and more by herself! Very informative and will still get a clicker lol. Loved the video!
i just wanted to thank you once again for these amazing videos. i've started training with my cat about a month and a half ago and she can follow finger, sit, fist bump and jump in an arm hoop in sequence for just one treat! every time i post a video of her on twitter it blows up! she is not a very cuddly cat so this is has been an enormous bonding experience for us that we hadnt even known was possible. thank you so much!
You're so welcome! I'm so happy to hear that she's learned all that already! Some of the tricks you are mentioning are not yet explained in my channel so I'm sure you've also done your good research to get there! Congrats! :)
My two sister Tabby's are not cuddly either so I'm glad it works. I'll try it again
I’ve been training my kitten for around a week now with the help of this video(I literally did exactly as Albert described), and I’m so excited to say that today it’s finally paid off, in training Milo, my kitten, went everywhere I pointed even to the top of his super tall post! So thank you so much Albert!! you’re videos are so so helpful, and everyone should watch them because they actually work and they’re very easy to follow :) thank you!!
Glad it helped! Thank you so much for taking a moment to share some love and appreciation! Messages like this keep us creating new content! :)
Don't hold the treat, just put it on the ground. When your fingers smell like the treat, they can't tell that it isn't food :)
My cat’s name is Milo as well
Albert this is amazing. I love your simplified teaching style 🐱😺
Your videos have been very helpful for our new kitten. Thank you!
I recently adopted a beautiful grey tortie kitten and am so happy I found your site. Perfect timing! 5:25
I just wanted to say thank you so much for uploading these videos and explaining how easy it is to clicker train a cat. my Bengal girl who is 10 used to drive me insane, once I started clicker training she became the cat I've always wanted. I wish I knew about these skills when I had her at Mia's age as we would have had a better relationship but that's all changed now and we're in such a good place together!
she actually picks up skills like a young cat would, I haven't had to work hard on her either, in fact I started adding in additional skills a bit early as it she didn't appear challenged enough with just "sit". so now she can sit, get into the carrier (that was a major goal for me), sit and stay (working on this one still but it's going well, finger targetting is going well but still needs work.
she sleeps through the night, doesn't hassle me for food constantly or attention, she's challenged, happy and stimulated.
Thank you
Hello, what treat do you give your bengal for clicker training?
I’ve really want a bengal cat but I can only have one cat at once. I’ve had my cat for nine years. She’s my childhood pet. She’s a shorthair tuxedo and your videos have helped a lot with the bonding experience. Even tho I’ve had her for nine years she’s been ignoring me but thx to your videos we have an inseparable bond now. She was born at my house so I have been handling her since she was born.
I love how he is always positive and smiling keep it up man ur gonna have a longer life 😌
i plan on getting a cat within the near future, and i want them to be really happy/stimulated. this channel has been preparing me for being a cat dad instead of a cat sibling 😂 👏
Thank you for this! It's a huge help
Going to binge-watch all your videos! My Bengal arrives in early January and I definitely had a hard time finding Bengal training specific videos on YT. Awesome content! :)
Best of luck! I've never imagined my life would change that much and that a cat would bring me so much joy. Enjoy the process! If you subscribe to the channel, you'll be receiving e-mails when new videos are out! :)
such cool videos thanks so much. i have a new bengal and i am going to train her!
So excited I found you. I found a stray grey tabby and I wanna teach her.
Love your channel! Super helpful, straightforward and sense of humour :) thanks for your tips. Cant wait to train my cat.
Thank you for taking a moment to share some love! Really appreciate it! Makes the effort worth it!
You are so welcome! Video making and editing takes a lot of time and effort. You’re doing a great job! Keep it up!
I watch a little snippet of yours on Facebook and just had to look you up on here. I wish I would have watched this when I had my cats. When they were kittens it was so hard to train them. If I would have known about this method years ago I would have def tried it
I love your video and I want to try to clicker train with my cats. Please keep your videos going.
sooo helpful💕💕💕
You provide excellent information and great videos. You definitely know what your talking about. This is what people should be doing with their pets. Great work from an expert.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for the love!
Amazing! I still don't have a cat, but I'm already half way through all your videos! Thank you for all your help, you're an incredible resource for new cat owners and not only!
I absolutely love that you are absorbing cat information before actually getting a cat. A very smart thing to do. Do you have one now? :)
@@hagron5702 hi Roger, yes, I actually do! :) Her name is Moka and she loves going outside with a leash. My neighbourhood is crowded with cars and knowing that I can still let her roam "freely" outside, go to the park and a lot more is great! 😁
@@angelaciola2754 That's awesome. I'm wishing you the best years with her. I've got a old 15 year-old boy that I got from a rescue when he was just a little lad. His name is Colby.
Thank you for this! Mia and you inspire me to do the same with my kitten :)
You should! It makes me extremely happy to see you starting this journey! I'm sure you will be rewarded with a beautiful bond with you baby! :) Ping me if you have questions along the way!
@@OutdoorBengal m to You didn’t kiss me when you left for work you walked out there and sit with Sam play the car I said oh you can’t kiss me for you gonna go talk to the cat remember no yeah no you told me goodbye you did not kiss me because I went any other time OK I’m glad you could talk to the cats and I’m in a hurry you did not kiss me
that ending just showed how much hard work he put in it
Very useful, I will try it 👍👍
Love your videos ! My kitten is only 5 weeks old, so I can’t give her treats just yet, but I really want to start training her !
Curious to know if you did manage to give training your cat a chance. And how has that experience been so far. (I'm getting a cat in 2 weeks... Can't wait to train him)
Perfeeect! Kisses from Brasil 🇧🇷❤
M'encanta! Súper util! Moltes gràcies!
Gràcies Júlia!! :) Crec que ets la primera catalana que tinc per aquí! jaja
I just found you and I am completely excited to train (myself!) and my cat! May I ask what treat you prefer to use while training?
Love it ! Going to give it a try with Lily 😄😄
That's my cat's name Lily.. she's black and white like tuxedo almost
Really helpful ✌️
You are my favourite youtuber ❤ ❤😊
i just wanted to drop by and say thank you for your service 💖 didn’t know this was possible with kitten / cats!!
will try this after my kitten has settled in my home ✨
Thank you so much!! Wishing you all the luck in your new bonding adventure!
@@OutdoorBengal hi albert! so its been 2 weeks of progress but I noticed my cat keeps on meowing when i prepare her food but before she’s not like this.
she follows when we’re training but when it comes to actually applying it, it’s like we didn’t even train at all! any advice pls?
YOUR TUTORIALS SOOOOOOOO GOOOD: I AM SUBSCRIBING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome
My house cat refused to be a house cat so I trained him to come home to the clicker. It worked better at night when it was silent. Lol
NICE TRAINING OF CAT
Hi there - love your videos! We just got two Bengal kittens who are so fun. Could you do a video on feeding? 1- how you went from free feeding to a schedule? 2- what kind of food you use and 3- when do you feed your cat? Thank you so much!! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for the recommendation! I like the idea! I'll work on one! :)
I can give you some quick answers, already though:
- To go from free feeding to schedule, try to offer "all you can eat" but only 3 times a day. Once they stop eating, remove the food until the next meal.
- I feed Mia wet food only and use dry kibble as treats for training. When outdoors, I use jam instead.
- I feed Mia 3 times a day plus the training sessions. At 8am, at 3pm and at 12am.
Hope this helps!
Voy a aprender inglés solo para poder entenderte, me encantais los dos. 😻
Hahaha! Dale, si tienes preguntas, puedes preguntar en español! :)
OMG sooo cute. ❤️ Rosie O from Devon x
This is great! We clicker train our pups 🐶 🐶 but I can say I've never thought about trying to train our cat!
Bengel cats seem super smart. Idk if they're smarter than the average cat, though!
My Bengal turned on the stove at 10 weeks old and opened my front door at 3 months, so yeah I'd say they are. 😂 Not to mention all the tricks she can do
Thanks for the informative video. What sort of treats wold you recommend and why?
Gracias! :)
First thing I'm going to buy when I get my cat x
I have been attached to my cats er since I had them thank you for your videos 😊 :from biggest fan lol ❤ ❤
Thank you soso much for sharing your experience!
Great video and so informative. Just want to point out clicker training is a type of operant conditioning and not classical conditioning. Operant conditioning involves associating a voluntary behaviour with a consequence through incentives, while classical condition does not🤍
I think Im gonna start training my cat and my brothers cat with the help of your video, so thanks for your tips hottie ;)
Good luck!! It's easier than it seems!
Thanks man
A pleasure! :) Best of luck!
Thanks for sharing! I’d love to know how you’d go about using clicker training for getting the cats comfortable with a harness and going outside. Thanks!
Hi Erik! There's this video in the channel! Check the playlist about Adventure Cat training :)
Thank you Albert and Mia for this channel! I began training my 16 month old cat a couple days ago and your videos are so helpful! My cat is very food motivated and is learning finger targeting and sit pretty well! When is it a good time to ask her to do a trick without rewarding with a piece of kibble? How do I know if my cat enjoys doing the trick even if she doesn’t get a food reward?
Wonderful! Intermitent reinforcement is the strongest for of reinforcement (think of casinos). You can start offering treats less. oftem during training sessions and then, incorporate commands in your day to day, sometimes with treats, sometimes without. good luck!
hey, I been loving your videos and i’m wondering what’s the best age to start training them. I wanted to know specifically the click trick, the finger trick and the getting used to a a harness and leash to then go outside. Thank you for all of you videos
Probably easiest when they're kittens, probably 11 weeks-ish, bc before that they lack focus and just want to play (which is great!). You can definitely do it with older cats though! There's no age limit, just be patient and lean into the repetition :)
So cute ❤️
Good.
Hi! Your videos are so nice! I wanted to ask you how old was Mia when you've started training her? I've a new kitty friend that is 3 months, she's already following my finger with the treat thanks to your video. Can we start so early?
New subscriber. I’m sorry but do to the Accent I misunderstood what you gave the cat instead of treats to reward your cat. Great videos man! I love people who treat Their animals amazing
Hi there! I’m so happy that I bumped to one of your videos, I just started to follow your tutorials and I love them! Super easy to understand. I need to re-bond with my kitten which is going through puberty stage.
I have 2 questions tho:
what exactly mean “charging your clicker”?
And what do you mean by “scribbles”?
Thank you
Hi Daniela,
Not the video author but charging your clicker I believe means to get your cat used to its sound and associate it with treats, like cats associate the noise of their treat bag with treats. When he said Scribbles I assume he meant kibbles as in dry cat food rather than treats, since the cat can eat a lot more kibbles in a short period of time vs cat treats in a short period of time :)
Thanks for this video. You just won a subscriber. One question, in 2:53 what is a scribble? (English is not my first language) Thanks.
Very helpful. So can you eventually use the commands without the clicker and treat? Or do you always have to follow Mia’s command following with clicker and treat?
I didnt quite catch that, what did you say you use instead of treats? Wonderful video, thank you so much!
Hehe nice video imma train my cay
Good luck!
dude you are amazing ^__^
Thanks so much!! :)
@@OutdoorBengal Welcome! quick question, two cats = two different clicker sounds yea?
@@Coco-xi9hq That's exactly it! And teach different tricks to each other so both commands and marks are different!
@@OutdoorBengal
Just got two kittens :)
Appreciate you and your videos. Tons of help haha
Albert.
I love your videos with Mia. You are truly a cat whisperer. How doe you work with two cats?
Thanks
Rick
There are a couple things you can do if you want to train your kittens together:
1) Use a different clicker sound (so that they don't confuse their "click" with their siblings)
2) Teach them different tricks (so they don't both do the trick at the same time)
The other alternative, is locking one cat at a time. You can lock yourself with the cat you are training instead of the cat that it's not trained. That makes the experience for the cat that's alone nicer.
Nice video👌🏾
Thanks for taking a minute to share some love! 😍
@@OutdoorBengal Yw dear.Just discovered you on TikTok today.
@@njeshkymani9656 Happy you joined us! Ping me if you face challenges in the clicker training journey! I'll be glad to help :)
@@OutdoorBengalThanks dear
Hi Albert,
I LOVE your videos!
I have two kittens that are 4 months old and started training them as you recommended at this video, however after a week I still don’t feel that they understood that the click is associated with the treat. Would you say that I need to do it for longer? Or maybe they are too young? Is there anything else I need to consider, like the pace? Thank you so much!
I like it
Just found ur videos I love this! This is so useful, btw! I don’t see the link about Finger targeting.. I really wanna learn everything step by step if you see my comment pls lemme know if the link still and thank you so much I already love this channel
Hi Albert!
Thank you for your videos! We got two kittens from the rescue a few weeks ago and I’d like to use your videos to help train them now that they are a bit older and have had some socialisation. My question is, how should I do the training with two cats. Should I hold training sessions together or should I separate them? They are always together so it feels weird to take one of them away!
Thank you 🤗
Great video, thanks! Just got a clicker and will start training with it. One question though: if I have catcandy with me, they will try to scratch it out of my hands there's a big eagerness, doesn't matter what time of the day I train with them or if they had food or not. And this scratching is quite painful. Any tips?
love your account!! How do you train 2 cats? Can they be in the same room when you do it?
Good question. I'd like to know the answer too
Hi Albert, thanks for your explicit video, helps a lot! I just want to be sure if you have to treat your cat EACH time you click, even if the skill is confirmed to be learnt?
I meant, once the skill is confirmed to be learnt, should we continue to C&T? I started the clicker training yesterday with my cat, 2 months and a half, the point is, there is another dog, 1 year and a half in an apartment, how should I manage the training while the dog is indoor? Separate them and stay with my cat in one room?
Explicit?
Hello I’m a new cat mom and I want to be able to train my cat like yours! My plan is to buy a clicker and binge watch all your videos! But for clarification, do you “click” after they’ve done the behavior you wanted or before so they know what to do? Thank you for your knowledge! Happy New Year!
Hello Corina! It makes me so happy to receive messages like this one... ☺
Once the clicker is "charged" your cat will know that after a "click" comes a reward. By clicking when your cat does the behavior you are wanting to achieve, the cat will know that that behavior gets them a "click", and "click" comes with a reward. So the trick here is to "click" in the exact moment when they do the behavior (while they are doing it). For example, if you are getting your cat to sit down, you'll click when your cat's butt touches the floor, not before, not after.
I hope this helps! Best of luck!
@@OutdoorBengal this helps a lot!
I am adopting two 12 week old kittens (Tonkinese, brother/sister) in early July 2024. I have subscribed and watch many of your great sessions. I will start with clicker training and then calling/finger waving. My question is to ask your thoughts on how best to do this with two kittens? Separate them? Do it together? etc. Thank you!
Thank you for your videos! Very interesting!
Once the clicker is charged, when you train your cat for finger targetting for instance, do you give reawrd when you click, or you just click? And once finger targetting is trained, in daily life, when you use your fingers to make her go somewhere, do you still click? And if so, do you also need to reward?
My kitten is surprisingly responding better than I thought he comes whenever he hears it after just one lesson but my cat on the other hand who is quite adventurous doesn’t care
That is amazing!! I am doing it with my car. What about the behaviors we don’t want our cat to do? Mine is two months and she bites everything including me all the time
That's because she was taken from the mama n siblings way to soon.
They learn that bitting hurts via there siblings n mama. Kittens are teething at that age up to a year as the big adult teeth come in.
A kitten should be 3months old when they leave the litter mates n mama as this is when they learn lots of things.
Hi Albert, if i have two bengals, do i need two clickers (different tones) and separate the cats during the Training? Thanks for Spur Support.
Do you have recommendations for multi cat homes?
I have two bonded cats who have severe FOMO, so they get anxious when separated. Individual sessions have been almost impossible.
Just a random thought I had when I read this comment…what if you had different clickers/sound devices for each cat? (Which would each have a unique sound) I wonder if you could teach each individual cat that their unique clicker sound means they did something good
Hello! I love your videos & I can't wait to start training my kitten. He was born about a month ago and I won't be bringing him home until he's about 12 - 16 weeks. How long should I wait to start training? I figure I would want him to get used to his new home and environment before getting started.
Good luck with the training!! You can already start! Start with easy tricks such as "Come when called" or "Finger Targetting"!
Wonderful video & channel.
Just 2 questions if you can answer me :
1/ you said the 1st lesson is to touch your finger but how did you prevent him from "eating" it? ;-)n (or playing with it)
2/ do I well understand, the step 0 is to click and give a treat in order the cat to understand clicker = reward (with no specific action in this first step)
tks !!
I don't even have a cat; but she's so cute and smart makes me want one...
Lawd I thought it was only babies that did that to people... lol😂
This is pretty cool, I used to think cats were not smart enough to follow directions or come when you call their name
They totally can! go for it!
Hello! My Bengal is 10 weeks is that a good time to start teaching? I will be following every step you teach. Just want to make sure if he is not too young. Thank you
Hi Albert! Thanks for this video. I have a question. What are the signs to identify that the clicker is charged enough to move to the next trick?
Love to Mia ♥️☺️
So "charging" is just something you do at the beginning of training -- it really just means to associate the sound of the clicker with giving your cat a treat. So what I did was say my cats name, click, and then give her a treat over and over for a few minutes, over a few days. If you do this enough, when you say your cat's name, they will come expecting a treat, and when that happens you click and reward.
In general, I would spending at least a few weeks on each trick before moving on (I train them almost every day bc it's basically a game for me :)
I have a kitten I want to be a support animal and we've begun harness training but I'd love to be able to teach her stay, come, and find out how to make her comfortable in a bag/basket
Hi! I love your videos, but I have a question: since you said you train with Mia a lot, how do you manage food the days of training? Do you reduce the ammount of food on the regular meal time to compensate all the food you give her during training time? Or how does it work for you guys?
I think it was as he said either 2 or 3 times a day the amounts should be the same for the weight of your kitty, train only during play or down time and not close to feeding! Hope this helps!
For my cats, I train them every day (not as a chore, it's honestly really fun!). I feed them in the morning, train them in the afternoon, then feed them again ~9pm. If you want to start training, you could reduce the amount of food you give them by a little, but don't stress it really. If you notice their weight is creeping up, you can adjust.
Hi amazing video! Is it possible to clicker train two siblings at the same time or should I train them separately?
I have the question please respond
Hi! I appreciate your work very much it's easy to understand. I actually want to ask one ques and that is like what am I supposed to do first coz my cat just came three dayz back and we adopting him like he use to stay with someone else and training quite well now that when we call him with the name we gave him or sometime like meow meow that he doesn't respond and I don't hv clicker but I use from app so how am I gonna work with that clicker first time with him with what...!??
This man is gorgeous. He can teach me how to train my cats any day. 😏
Right?! I was thinking the same thing just watching the tik tok’s , then watched the video and heard that accent 😍😍😍
And he uses glasses too.(slghhh) I fell over when I herd the accent. If he clicked anything I'd come running too.
y'all thirsty af
Hmm which cat?😕
@@janallymaturan2561 quarantine does that! 😂
Hi Albert. We were wondering how to properly train our cat's with the clicker training. Thanks again and hope to hear from you
Hello Lynda, what do you mean? Is there anything that you would like me to go more into detail on?
@@OutdoorBengal we have been doing well, teaching to touch the clicker wand. Sitting is good, come here is good. Having problems with following the clicker wand, or our finger, (spin). Do you have any video to help people with stubborn cats. Thanks again, your videos are very helpful.
Heya question - I want to clicker train my cat with her dry food but she doesn’t like her dry food at all. How can I test try new dry foods without wasting lots of food and money on the big bags ?
What can you use instead of a clicker? I do not own one at the moment and I just got my cat today ^^
Hi! Love your videos! I was wondering, how old was Mia when you started training her?
My Bengal kitten Sunlight is four months old and she's full of energy, she's more interested in toys than treats, I can't always reward her with toys, how can I train her efficiently?
We started training when she was 12 and outdoor training at 14 weeks. Are you free feeding her? If you put her on a schedule that will help you a lot! :)
My cat is 8 months old, I have never done training, I would like to erase bad habits he has, am I still in time to start? thank you, great work 💗
hey, I really like your videos. I got a Bengal cat a couple of days ago, she is 12 weeks old. what age did you start training Mia? Thanks!
I started a week after she got home, at 13weeks. I started with easy tricks like come when called and finger targetting and as she got comfortable I increased the difficulty of the tricks and my standards to reward the tricks she already knew! :)
My cat is now 10 months.. Is this too late?
Thanks for your great videos! :-D I have two kitties and one of them responds very well to clicker training with the help of your videos, and the other one is not interested in the reward (cat treat) or training. I have two questions: 1) how young can the cats be when stopping to free feed? I hope this can help the less interested cat in training to wear a harness. They are soon 5 months old, but when I asked my veterenary he had never heard of clicker training for cats and could not see the problem with free feeding. 2) The cat that responds to clicker trainging paws towards my fingers when I give the treat, and I am not sure how to make him stop? He rarely have the claws out, but I would prefer him not to. He does this AFTER I have clicked because he did the behaviour I wanted, and since I already have clicked I give him the treat (right?). To illustrate with an example: I ask him to sit, he sits, I click, and then he pawes towards my fingers for the treat. Should I not give him the treat even though I clicked? I am worried I am enforcing the behaviour... Would love to hear your advice!
I'll try to break down my anser into 3:
- Cats can be trained and Mia and all those who've tried it, are the living proof.
- There's no problem on free feeding but you are removing the best opportunity to 1) bond with your cat, 2) teach them things, 3) help them adapt to follow your schedule
- The last point, about clawing, there are several things you can do: 1) don't have the treat on your hand. Put the treats in a pot and keep the pot out of reahc. 2) throw the treat away instead of giving it close to you. 3) don't give the treat until they look at you in the eyes after the trick.
good luck!
@@OutdoorBengal Thanks for taking the time to reply! :-)
Should I continue to click the clicker as a phase out the treats?
Love your videos ❤ and MIA. My bengal cat Mowgli is now more than 3 years old, is it too late to clicker training him ? I also take him in the backpack for the outdoors but he doesn’t always want to get in the bag 😢
Well, that's a sign that they might not want to go out? It's good that he is able to let you know when he is in the mood for an adventure and when not!
