For example, I like to train mine to accept me providing scritches (petting) with my feet and for them to be equally comfortable with using foot as hand

    I taught mine this cool trick where I’m holding him and he hears a slightly loud noise and then claws the ever loving shit out of me and leaves me deeply gouged and bleeding in several places. It’s a great trick.

      My cat has this fun one where when I try to pet her she gives me the most bewildered look and leaves the room as quickly as possible.

        Helps to keep treats on file and give them opportunities to earn them by being close to you and interacting more.

        I have a more skittish delicate one who sits on my lap/chest even though she use to be wayyy more flighty
