they might be able to, but you would have to teach them that that particular sound is good, not bad. so when you train your cat with a clicker, charge it up. after you clicked the clicker once, treat your cat, until he/she knows that it is good, not bad. so then, when your cat does a behavior that you like, click the clicker and your cat will know that they did something good.

How do you get a cat to use an obstacle course?

Hi there...cats can be trained to run obstacle courses similar to what dogs do in agility courses. However, cats need to learn how to use one obstacle at a time and usually it needs to be the last obstacle taught first then the previous obstacle leading back to the first obstacle in the course. This method is known as back-chaining. Each obstacle a cat needs to be trained using operant conditioning techniques and one that works efficiently with a high rate of success is known as clicker training. One terrific book that is an easy and short read is called Clicker Training for Cats by Karen Pryor: http://www.clickertraining.com/cattraining You can purchase this book at just about any bookstore or online. More clicker training info can be found: http://www.petplace.com/cats/clicker-training-your-cat/page1.aspx


What is an alternative to a spray bottle for cats that can be used for behavior training?

An alternative to a spray bottle for behavior training in cats is a handheld clicker. Clicker training involves using a small device that makes a clicking sound to mark desired behaviors, which can be followed by a reward. This method is effective in reinforcing positive behaviors and can be a more gentle and positive approach compared to using a spray bottle.

What is smarter cats or dogs?

It depends on what your asking it to do... Dogs are usually more willing to do things, but that doesn't make cats any less smart. With the proper bribery you can get your cat to do anything your dog can do- or vise versa. Resources- My own experiences with clicker training- My cats can do more impressive stuff than my dog, because my dog is pretty old. That just goes to show that all animals are different, and need different treatment. Recommendations- I would DEFIANTLY recommend Clicker Training to complete any trick or thing you want your pet to, in a VERY small amount of time. (I trained my cat to do an obstacle course that changes every time in roughly 10 minutes using Clicker Training, and she is a 4 and a half month old kitten.) It is possible that dogs are smarter than cats, because i have a predator showdown book, and it says for the big cats 6,7,and 8 for brains. The wolf is 9 for brains. Cats could be smarter, too because they can do tricks like dogs and they can find their way back home, unlike dogs. Iam personally a cat person, even though at home i have dogs, not cats.
