CATS
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.

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.
