Folded ear cat

　　Doing things my own way, not listening to the owner — this is considered the biggest effort of , which is understandable. But since living with humans, it is still necessary to give the some basic education.

　　Because cats are different from , they do not have the habit of obeying humans, so some people think training cats is impossible. Actually not so, indeed cats cannot learn to shake hands or sit still like dogs, but they can realize that they live together with the owner and maintain a good relationship with them. Even cats feel comfortable. Of course, we can’t train cats to behave like obedient servants, but giving them some basic education that both the owner and the cat feel happy about is not difficult.

　　The first step in training a cat is to let it remember its own name and achieve "come when called." From the first day the cat comes home, just like remembering the location of the litter box, let it remember its name.

　　The most effective way is to call the cat’s name before feeding. Once it understands that calling its name means food, it naturally remembers the sound of its name. As a result, in occasions other than mealtime, when you call it, it will "meow" or turn back to look or wag its tail to respond. This makes other kinds of training easier. Knowing its own name, it will come when it hears it even if it is lost. Usually, many owners like to talk to their cats, saying "Come, Mimi," which works even better when adding the cat’s name.
