"When tricks go wrong" Bengal cat gets confused about 'shake a paw' trick

[echoplexia32]

Haha, I love this! My dog is exactly the same way... He automatically hands me his right paw every time, but when I try to get him to "give other paw" (something my parents' dog does with no problem) he just looks sooo confused! I've only tried to teach it to him a few times, so maybe eventually he will get it, lol... Your Bengal is absolutely beautiful btw :)

[beastshawnee]

um... you seem to be confused...this is a cat, C-A-T, a cat. not a dog. cats are leaders, not followers, it's impossible to train a cat in this manner. a man in atlanta did have trained cats, you can find him on youtube. he;s russian, but trained is still loosely used.

I remember a kindergarten teacher who wanted me to be right-handed...dumb broad...she didn't wear underwear...I remember "nap time" and lying on my back as she walked around us...probably warped my mind forever...and I am STILL left handed!

[merlin6363]

cats are south paws, as we southern types say.

[JingoItaly1972]

The cat can't lift the right paw because he can't put the left one to the ground, 'cause your stupid hand is in the way.

[cscsullivan119]

I remember reading something about most cats being left handed

[Legiold]

What a beautifull cat!

[SilentKhayos]

lol! BeBe knows touch and will run up and smack things out of my hands now. so cute. cats are great! <3

[yoshiguy123]

Maybe he uses his other hand for... things. He did you a favour bro.

[ThePrairieOrca]

Nice! Maybe try simplifying the "shake the other paw" by just saying "other" - works great with my dog.

[kirbz01]

how much did he cost? are Bengals the breed that cost like 22k? i hope not...cuz i would love one!

[bigdaddy234567]

haha, that was funny...also the camera chicks a babe!

[MereLee]

Uhhh... I have the feeling that the cat trained you xD

Cats are just like that, aren't they? We always surrender to their desires (my cat makes me open the door for her, and also often steals my chair and I have to go find somewhere else to sit)

[babynandie]

amizing my cat would never be able to do this its soooo cool for a cat i think its very good

[Bossiiiii]

why didn't he refuse to shake his left paw?!? why so selective?!??!?

[scabiesandrabies]

boy cats are left handed and girl cats are right handed

[sceleste888]

They do say that cats perfer to use the left paw.

[Snpdrgon]

LOL agrees with Sevenfish!

[mahaSTAR]

fuck u u suck

[anyjen]

"you want my paw, here you go! now give me that treat already!" XD

[Balpy67]

Ahhh a southpaw ...

[cantavoidtrite]

Your cat has an amazing coat. Do not let Anna Wintour see it!

[Sevenfish0]

Maybe his left handed ^.^

[ImaniL8]

@Sevenfish0 *cough* left pawed *cough*

[chrisbitz]

That's a great trick!

Shake is one command that she's learned means the left paw, but then "shake other paw" is an incredibly complex sentence structure for a cat. you should choose a single word that means "shake your right paw" that doesn't sound similar to "shake" and she'll pick it up fine.

[FeistyGoldStar87]

@chrisbitz Good idea. I was in dog training for a while. We taught "shake" to mean to right " and "paw" to mean the left>

[ryaninja0]

Just give him the treat dammit! He doesn't know left from right! :)
