I have two former feral cats and they are very food motivated. I can get them to do ANYTHING I want. Enza used to jump up on the bed to wake me up.
I taught her to jump on the dresser. so now she sits there waiting for a kibble as time for me to get up approaches.
Then i go into the bathroom, and she will shut the door for me. Too bad if i'm in the way the door will hit me in the back. If that isn't good enough, she'll open the door and go out and come in again.
Then we get to the kitchen and Aggie jumps on top of the garbage can. what she wants is for me to throw kibbles, so i do; and now all 3 cats are scrambling for the few kibbles i throw.
next i hide kibbles all over the place, windowsill, chair, cat scratching post.
If Enza is on her game, she manages to follow me and find most of them.
She will give me a kiss, spin, sit, lay down all on command for a kibble.
they keep me entertained too.
