Clicker trained to sit, come, high-five and jump. For the "jump" I do not require them to lift their hind legs off of the ground (just reach up high). One will do a real jump but I save those treats for playtime at the moment.
Yours are gorgeous!This is wonderful to see.I have 2 and they're astonishingly intelligent.My 2 will campaign for me to get their harnesses on and go for walks,they love it and I'm smitten with them.
Hi! I use PureBites treats. They are 100% protein, freeze dried, so they are healthy, low calorie and don't have weird additives or preservatives in them. It's just straight meat and they love the flavors!
Hi Yay. Very beautiful tonkineses. My tonkinese boy is very naughty. Never stop running and playing. Always playing outdoor and don't even want to wear a collar. It bites me often. How did you trained your cat? Do you have to start from a kitten? Thanks
@YayHeaven whoops,I didn't think,the sound of me handling them brought a very excited boy out of his slumber! The actual embroidered name's worn-I think it's Rogue but the thing is it's how you fit them that's imperative.I will get you the name in the next couple of days,in fact I'll video it for you.I need to reset up a new(real) channel anyway.I'm going thru' footage of the "kids" as I speak so I'll let you know.I have plenty of them in harness so...It's perfectly safe,all in the fitting
I have 2 mixed cats. After a random comment from my massage therapist I think their mom is a Tonkinese now thanks to your videos (just with different fathers). I'll need to get some video's now because I've done stuff like this with them for a while. Instead of jump though for Wiggles, she does "Tiger" and Ginger does "Hooman" because she will never reach for the treat, only stand up like a meerkat for a good long while with her arms down. Do your cats sleep in upside down "mantis" pose in the afternoon for their deep sleep? I had never heard of Tonkinese cats before yesterday and now I think I own 1 (well, 2 x .5 Tonks) ;) (One clearly tabby father, the other, no idea) wigglesandginger.tumblr.com/
@OujiDarkmatter I would love to get them in harnesses!!! I have read they can slink out of them if they get spooked and I am so afraid of losing them! I may not have found the right harness yet, but it makes me so afraid to find out the hard way! Can I ask which you are using? Thanks!
Beautiful cats -- But I would not demand they do tricks for treats - they deserve to be treated better than that... All that said, they are highly intelligent!! :)
