YES! A cat will learn tricks if you make it worth their while to do so. Treats usually work well. Observe your cat doing something you want it to do, like using it's scracting post, and then reward it with a treat. I taught my cat to sit on command this way. It took about three or four tries. He was a smart cat.
no they can not learn
The first and most important ethics a child can learn in regards to obedience is kindness. A child will react better to discipline when kindness is shown and will learn to respect those who are kind.
Constant obedience to Gods laws .
yes cats can learn exactly like dogs except you need a different approach
CATS
Your veterinarian, the internet, and the library...
Well, I'm not a cat, but I CAN tell you what I would do as an apprentice in warrior cats.. Respect older cats, learn battle moves, hunt, clean out elders' nests and ticks. As a medicine cat apprentice I would learn the herbs, remember where they grow, learn a bit of battle moves just in case and learn how to treat sick cats.
Dogs and Cats
An obedience show is when owners who have well trained dogs compete to win. The dogs are not judged on looks, but on their skills at tricks and agility. The commands that dogs must learn to be entered in most obedience rings are ''sit'', ''lie down'', ''shake'' and ''heel''. More advanced classes will ask for harder tricks.
Cats are more independent than dogs and thus usually harder to train to do tricks. However with a little effort many cats will learn to do tricks. Whether cats or dogs learn more tricks is usually more an issue of the patience of the human trainer, not the animal.
