Learned behavior is anything that isn't done by instinct. A cat will instictively know how to eat, and how to walk, and will know what it's whiskers are for. However, a cat may have to learn to put up with dogs, and thus a cat that curls up with a dog has a 'learned' behavior.

One learned behavior of a cat is using a litter box for urinating and defecating. Cats learn this behavior from their mother as kittens and through reinforcement and repetition. Another learned behavior is scratching, which helps them mark their territory and keep their claws healthy. Cats also learn through experience how to communicate with humans for food, attention, and play.
