My cats train humans......
lol, yes indeed.
I've heard of clicker training for dogs but not for cats.
I;'ll be really interested to know if it works, so good luck.

Hi Alyceanne, Mishka must be gorgeous, ragdolls all are. I don't know anything about clickers or training cats, but here are a couple of things our Milo does.
One day, I could hear the phone ringing (I was downstairs), I rushed up the stairs to get the phone, just in time to see Milo with his paws grabbing at the spiral cord on the phone! He thought he could take the call!
Another time, actually more than once, the oven timer was set for me to remember things cooking. Milo was sitting with us in the lounge room watching TV. The timer went off, and as I was engrossed in the program, I was a bit slow to get up and go to the kitchen. Milo glared at me, waited for a sec, than ran to the oven and was reaching up to the wall oven!!!
When the timer went off another time, I quickly called my husband and come and watch, and Milo did it again!! He was amazed,( hubbie that is) and finally believed me about the phone, no-one elso does!
Milo also reacts (runs away) to the flea powder container, or whenever we even open the drawer where the worm tablets are kept! I'm sure you'll easily come up with a solution to the hopping on the kitchen bench!
