So, for the past few nights Matt has been giving the kits treats. He tried to get them to "work" for their treats by standing up or reaching out for them. Well, last night Frankie decided it was time to re-train daddy on how to give treats. She sat atop the love seat as usual looking very smug. Daddy gavie Wickett some treats and tried to verbally coax Frankie down. She just re-adjusted herself and got more comfortable. After about 5 minutes he gave up. He got up and took her a treat. Traning complete! Frankie got exactly what she wanted and daddy got annoyed when I pointed this out to him.

Sounds like she has life figured out! If I try to make mine come to me for a treat they just stare at me like "You have got to be kidding me!"

I guess Wickett is still young and niave... he'll come running and mewing all the way. Frankie will if she's already up but if she's comfy and well fed good luck getting her to move. LOL What's really funny is daddy pretends to not like her (mostly cuz she can be stuck up) but we all know better.

There's no place like home
We need to make this a poll - I'll bet that female cats are much better at training their owners than male cats!

My 2 girls play us for treats. Scarlett has us trained to place her treats between our lips so she can give a kitty kiss while she removes it from our mouths. Koko needs her treats away from all those icky boys!!

Mika has us trained. She comes to the kitchen, sits on the mat by the sink, looks up with those big beautiful blue eyes and makes her sweet little noise that is the extent of her voice to ask for a treat. If that doesn't work or we don't hear her, she will stand on our leg for a quick second or two to let us know she is there. There is NO way to resist. Bijou isn't as big on treats but he'll take the opportunity to have a couple once Mika has our attention.

They are both beautiful, but looking at your sig is enough to guess how very effective Mika and her blue eyes would be.
