- In this video I show you how easy it was to train Momo to give paw. Siamese cats are supposed to be very easy to train and Momo proved this outright. It took him only 5 days to understand and learn that giving paw resulted in a treat. I highly encourage others to try this with their cats, even if they aren't Siamese. Many people are under the assumption that cats can not be trained, I think Momo has proven that to be wrong.

Me: touches my cat's paw
My cat: Immediately hisses, stands up and runs away
Well.... I can't even start
Some cats aren't comfortable with their paws being touched. Try building up trust by stroking their paws when they sleep. For the training part, you can start with a touchless trick like "up" or "spin". I'm busy with the spin video. Hopefully, we will be able to put it up next week.
Your cat has a attitude
@@MomoSiamese I can confirm that. Cat needs to be relaxed to allow to be touched on more sensitive parts. I would not be able to trim my cat claws, if he does not want to offer a paw.
Just don’t do tricks that require any grabbing or holding of paws. By nature, they don’t want their paws touched (let alone held). High five amd , choosing which hand a perfect alternative. I trimmed my cats nails basically everyday as a kitten. I barely trimmed anything off, but it’s a Better method for me than trying to trim longer nails. I never really grabbed at my cats paws because I know they don’t like it. But my cat doesn’t really bat an eye if I touch, hold, pet his paws. He doesn’t like that he has to sit still when I trim his nails, but he doesn’t care if I do it. Now he’s just over a year and I trim a few different claws different days of the week because he’s so cooperative. But I still avoid ‘tricks’ that involve things cats inherently dislike such as, shake. At this point my Siamese cat does some tricks, but they’re really related to games he likes to play. I am doing things all the time to keep him stimulated. I cut out different patterns of holes in boxes so he can try and get toys out. I put different blankets or old sheets over different tunnels or stools or chairs and he hides And plays around in that for hours (especially if I play hide and seek). I literally spend no less than two hours a day engaging him in some sort of activities. As a result, his ‘tricks’ are really a consequence of games he enjoys.. Be creative. I am continuously finding great humor in what my cat enjoys doing rather than a few commands. As you’ll see by the video above, she and the cat are enjoying the interaction and that’s why it’s so cool. Anyone can have a cat that will unenthusiastically train their owner to give them treats. No point if your cat is miserable. But building interaction where both the cat and cat parent are having fun is what it is all about
Day 1 : He steals the treats and run away.
Same
I had a kitty with the same name
New trick 😂 LMAO-
LoL.
Lmaoooo
My childhood Siamese learned this all on his own, no training was ever required :) They're a really unique breed.
Wow you got lucky. 👏👏
My siamese is more reliable than my alarm clock.
I taught my Siamese cats how to sit in 10 min. Can’t wait to try this!
How
Siamese cats are capable of learning everything lol.pretty much
Day 1: Bites my finger off when I shake her paw
Day 100:I have no fingers left to shake her paw
@@serghost_ph565 you have a lot of fingers to have gone to day 100
Day 1: keeps on taking her paw back always
Day 2: biting time
Day 3: finally calms down and stops and lets me
Day 4: acts like an angel to get treats but the next second le scratch
Day 5: starts to act better
It took me over 10 days for her to learn paw for sit she learned it for only a day
my cat only keeps taking back her paw
I personally have a british shorthair, wich by nature is a very calm and brave cat so she learn the paw trick in half a day...
Nope day two still nox
Taught my Siamese this as well. He knows many of tricks but this is his go to, he'll constantly try and give me his paw the moment I take a knee with the treats.
I would be taking a shower when this brown arm would reach around the shower curtain and start waving frantically. I would look around the curtain and the look on our seal points face was priceless! "Why are you in THERE? I'll save you! Take my hand, hurry!" Probably my favorite memory of her.
😂 That is amazing! Momo usually just sits outside the shower and waits for us to be done.
@@MomoSiamese Our other cats would just sit by the sink waiting for me to turn it on so they could get a drink. That stuff in the bowl just was not as fresh.
Momo is so cute!! The cat in the picture is Kiki. He’s a long haired Siamese.🙃
Nanu Rocks. Your cat is A vir unusual?...long haut siameses....!!.cool.
🙃
I just got one named mushu😁
J'ai adopté un siamois...c'est un véritable 🐈 Chat- Chien... adorable, à l'allure altière, joueur, espiègle, excessivement câlin ! Et un chaton dans la foulée, qui lui donne tout son Amour et les deux me tiennent merveilleusement compagnie, et s'entendent très bien avec mes deux Chihuahuas 😍😍😍😍
Cool
My wife named our Siamese cat Momo as well. Thanks for the video!!
🐱💞I AM ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH MOMO!!!💞🐱
So are we ❤️
Crazy I have a siamese and named him Momo, and now I come across this Beauty.
I have a son called momo, but he"s not so well trained.
@@jennyshoarhouse 😂😂 what ?
Momo is so sweet! My cat grabbed my finger with her claws, bit me and then hissed at me.
Hi
Let's face it, Momo is just a star. As they all are.
My cat was easier she was like TEACH ME PAAW and pawed my hand first try lol
Edit : thx for the likes its the most ive ever had and my cat turned into a boy ;-;
Turned into?
@@rayhib happy pride month
Never did I think I’d come across another cat named Momo, my cat literally meowed 😂
There are surprisingly many 😂
I love this! I love your cats too, they're beautiful. I'd love to try this with my Siamese cats as well, hopefully I'd get them to sit in place without freaking out at the sight of food.
Been looking for some easier tricks to teach my Siamese lately and this sounds like the trick to try! They already have "spin" and "speak" down pat! So cute. Thanks for sharing.
i started with directionals, name recall, followed by wiggling a finger that they have to touch with a paw, then to flat hand, then to high 5. I have 3 babies and one has moved on to tricks like turning around and standing, the other two are stuck on finger the wiggle.
Cute little cat socks :>
Lovely Siamese cat!
Cute simmise cats I love the way he gives treats
Great kitty
Thank you for sharing this! I have a 6 month old kitten that has already learned the command for "sit". I'll be teaching this one to him next!
:)
Yay Momo! What a smart kitty you are..
I have been blessed with the presence of Siamese for now more than 10 years ! My boyfriend thought Victor a chocolate point like Momo to roll over for Cheez Whizz.
My first step to show my cat this video
Awwww he's so smart and BEAUTIFUL ❤...subbed
Thank you for the support 😁
@@MomoSiamese you're welcome
Im gonna do it.
My cat knows sit, so I'm teaching him paw, so far he thinks swatting the paw at my hand will work. Lol so I'm trying to have him be less aggressive with it. It's a start. Haha when he does it gently then I give him the treat!
Ding ding , the office bell my Siamese 🐈 rings for his treats . It be room service next . Brainy cat. I sometimes have to hide the bell 😂 else he'll ring it 🤣
We want to try that next. I'm desperately looking for a bell to buy.
@@MomoSiamese my bell came from the game . The card game you can't say No To ! The yes and No 😉 my KENCo now needs to learn NO! No more ringing the bell for treats 😄
Haha I love this!! I taught my cat this also, I think people think it’s not possible to train a cat. But it is! I
I have recently tried to learn my cat to shake and this video really helped, i also figured out that my cat understands the screen and did way better after he saw the video of your cat shaking
Glad we could help and well done on teaching your baby!
They say Siamese cats are very smart. Well I will try it with my Siamese cat named Richoco. Hope it works. Thanks for this tutorial btw.
I hope it works! Let us know!
I have a brother and sister both Siamese thank you
Shoooo cuteeeww ahhhh momo’s little head and his cross eyes 😍😍😍 going to try this with my meezer Kai
Glad you liked it! Please let us know how it goes!
Momo Siamese Kai was more distracted than Momo... we’ll try again tomorrow 😂
Haha keep at it. Momo is still very young so it was quite easy to get him to cooperate. All of our other cats that are older don't want to play along either. They just want to go right to the food. Just keep working on it every day and he'll get it eventually.
So smart so beautiful 😻
THX SO MUCH MY SIAMESE CAT REMY actually GAVE ME HIS PAW THX SO MUCH!
So so happy to hear that! Congrats!
This is one smart cat.your a great trainer.please teach my five cats this trick
Hi! Rescuer here: maine coons are the best for human tricks; my first rescue actuslly taught other cats how to be gregarious and loving with new guests and OTHER ANIMALS! awesome energy around the house; they DO NEED outdoors and sunlight though.
My mom loves Maine Coons and may one day get one. We usually just go to our vet or local shelter and get rescues... Momo just happened to be a siamese rescue.
VERY INTELLIGENT BREED! SO ADORABOLE!!!!
Thank you!
I'M GOING TO TRY THIS! IT'S SO CUTE! I also have a male siamese cat who LOVES treats and food so much. I hope I will be able to trick him~
I'm going to try this with my seal point! She seems smart, but she might be to young and playful to get it. Or maybe it's better to train them younger? I've tried to leash train her for when I take her outside but she just stands there. I finally gave up and bought a covered pet stroller. I had her wearing cute dresses when she was 10 weeks old and she played and didnt seem to mind them at all. She grew xs and s and then when it was time to go up another size whw wouldn't move. She would just stand there for a minute the fall over🙄. So now I just dress her for a quick pic or if we go out in the stroller. This is my second seal point, she is actually a decendent of my first who I got in 2000 for my husband. Shaggy lived only to 13 and always seemed skittish. I also got a Himalayan Siamese in 2000 after my 20 year old siamese passed away. Kooky, my Himalayan, also passed at 20 this year. So I'm hoping Nefertiti, we call her TT, lives a long life like my other babies and actually makes it past 20. I have a feeling my 18 year old, half siamese is going to make it past 20. She is the last if our original bunch and still kicks ass and takes names! She hates cats and since the others have passed on, she finally sleeps and stays on the covered porch, which I'm so glad about it's much safer. She used to sleep in the woods even though we built her a house on the back porch since she didnt want to hang out with the others. We live in the country, she refuses to stay inside, and I think the reason why is she likes chasing other animals off her land. Her old ass cracks me up chasing the neighbors cat away. I've heard her make a growling sound I've never heard her make before when she chases it away. I always think its because she feels she waited all them years for the others to pass on to make it up to the front porch and doesn't want to lose her spot. 🤣🤣 She doesn't bother with the neighbors goose, ducks, or the wild turkeys I feed! But she walks the perimeter of our land every morning sniffing around to see if a cat has invaded her territory while she was sleeping I guess🤔🤣. It makes me sad that she never had a friend so I give her extra attention at night and try to get her to spend a few minutes a day with the new baby but she doesn't seem interested and usually walks off. Wow this got long...yikes, that's embarrassing. My longest post ever is about my cats😹.
My cat nala learned the paw trick in 1 day. However she taught herself how to open our sliding closet doors and fetch on her own. She is very smart. She is a American shorthair dilute calico
thank you i will do this with my cat stardust
me:grabs my cat's paw
cat:hmm i don't like where this is going
also me;shakes it
my cat:so you've chosen death
😂😂😂 We can all relate to this! Thank you! Needed a good laugh today!
I siamesi sono bellissimi e molto intelligenti. Baci a questo siamese da marcella from sicily. 👏😻😽🤗
You have VERY cute cats
and thank you very much for showing this video with us 😄
I really like my cats, and I always wanted to teach them something one day, and this is the PERFECT thing, because it's funny and amainzing at the same time !!
And as I said, your cats are pretty cool as well :)
Thanks again for sharing the video and have a good day !
Thank you for watching and good luck teaching your cats some new tricks!
Thank you! :)
Did an excellent/smart method in teaching Momo to shake hands!😸😸!! Need to teach his two sister😸😸the same trick!! #CatsRule
Gonna try this with Diego.
I'm sure he would pick this up super quick too. I try with Maya but she just gets angry when I grab her paw.
@@MomoSiamese My cat bites me when I touch her paw. Do you know how to teach her the paw trick? Or should I teach her a different trick?
Great video! Hope it will help me give a paw)) But I am not so patient. I am very playful. Maybe would be better for me to learn giving a paw when I become older?
I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE MOMO!
And Momo loves you too!
My siamese kitten Zero gave paw, and layed down on command;) siamese are very smart,an easy to teach..
I now own a new siamese kitten named Willow who I'm teaching give paw;)
Awesome! Keep it up!
Update, Willow gives paw, plays fetch and sits up now too! ❤
Very interesting experience. 👍👌
Adorable and smart, love him ❤
I have two Siamese girl kitties that will be two yrs old on April 20th. Millie and Tilly. They fetch and give me a high fives! And they keep me very warm at night under my blanket! I even get petted, and it just warms my heart!
Meezers are so special ❤️ Couldn't imagine my life without Momo.
I'm gonna try this with our Kitty. She's still 6 months old and on her puberty stage. She's quite rebellious and does whatever she wants 😂 Wish me luck!
Good luck! 6 months should still be young enough to give it a good try.
I trained my new rescue black cat to give me his paw. I'm so surprised with how fast he has learned, it only took 4 days! I taught him to give paw with hand signals but during the process of learning to give me his paw, he also learned the voice command for sit! He's one of my only cats who learned his name straight away so I knew he was going to be a fast learner.
It's the same with Momo. He's so smart and pics up tricks so fast. We just did a video on doing high five. We are organising a bell to train him to use it.
2:12 so cute 🥰
💙💙💙
I'll try this with my cat Carter
I have a Siamese cat named Maple who I just got a week ago since my brother and father are allergic and I wanted to teach my cat how to give paw! Such a perfect video :)
Thank you for your kind words and enjoy your new baby!
Wichien Maat here in Thailand are quite less active and more shy. I can make one gives a hand automatically in a couple of hours. I didn't mean to boast, if the cat is easily trained a lesson then that lesson tends to be forgotten very soon as well. So it more depends on the time you spend with teaching.
Very true. We got Momo to do all these tricks for the video but then didn’t really continue to do them. He still does them when we ask though.
I have siamese cat and it work very well
Omg thank you my cat it clever now he is fully train thank you🥰🤩
We're glad you managed to teach your cat! It's a great exercise to keep them mentally stimulated and out of trouble too.
They’re both beautiful kitties. They’re also both extremely intelligent. My Siamese has zero interest in treats and is not motivated by food. But he is highly motivated by play. He literally plays hide and seek, fetch (on his terms), catch among other things
I was really amazed- it took my cat only two days to completely master this trick. My cat is not a specialty breed, but she's very bright and exceptionally affectionate and likes to please which made it easy for her to respond
Well done! Keep teaching her tricks. It's a great way to build trust and to keep cats engaged and happy.
Thank you! I couldn’t understand people who treated their pets like family members…… until I got one. I get it now - love my girl!
He's so.cute
Yes he is!
I will try this with my cat Lilly
Leica my oriental shorthair learnt this without treats. Just giving extra pats on head when she did it. She loved to play fetch as kitten. Again she dudnt need treats. I could see her struggle to focus on fetching outside with birds chirping but she would manage to stay on task. Definitly got attitudes and brains of her siamese ancestors. She is slowing down now at nearly 14 due to arthritus but still shakes hands.
That's amazing! Momo is the first cat we have that took to training but always with treats. He's very food motivated!
@@MomoSiamese Leica is not so food motivated but definitley trainable. I would get home from work and had to play with her for a few hours every day when she was a full on kitten lol. We had another oriental when I was a teenager and he was pretty clever, figured out window security catches and how to get out his cage. My mum bread siamese in the 70s so grew up around these beautiful intelligent breeds.
Finna teach milo right now
cutie Momo
Thx
Aww
Intermittent reward is the strongest reinforcement of behavior. Once the animal has learned the connection between response and reward, reward the response intermittently only.
Now that he has learned the tricks, we don't reward as often anymore 😊 we're also wondering if we should consider trying clicker training for him.
It reminds me of Jun's Kitchen channel. I love Siamese so much and I would do this to my future cats.
We love Rachel and Jun! That is the best compliment we've ever gotten I think 😍
day 1: ooh .. bored. day 2: damn!! stressing, yo aren't Homer Simpson/Homer Thompson . .. day 3: the light in the end of tunnel. day 4: let's start the training. day 5: practice more XD
Excellent. Did same with my little stray cutie. Didn't have cat treats at the time. Used CHEETOS. 😂 He's now 10. He's given paw since 4 months old, without treats. Give him ONE Cheeto now maybe 3x's a year for the helluva it. 😁
Omg It is so cute I am thinking to get a Blue Point Siamese
Thank you for giving tips on how to get yoir cat to give their paw.
You're most welcome! Good luck teaching yours!
Siamese are so smart
I taught my Scottish straight this and now he just comes to me at random moments and gives me his paw without me asking.
So adorable 🥰 high five.
They do get adhd don’t they?😂😂😂. My girl stares out the window because she’s so into what everyone is doing.
They really do. Momo can be napping but if we go into the garden for any reason, he always needs to come with. He has total fomo 😂
@@MomoSiamese 😂😂😂. We recently had roof work done and when the roofers left my cat had to go up on the roof and inspect every shingle they put down.😂😂😂🤦🏻♀️. NOSY!!!! #wearesiameseifyouplease
Ty
It took me a week but I didn't give him treats or anything, just said, "Good Boy". Made a vid.
Thanks for telling me now my cat gives me her paw
聪明的小猫❤❤❤
Gonna try this with my Tabby Cat 🐈 and my Russian Blue cat 🐈⬛
I'm teaching my cat😺
lol, my kitty (14weeks) is just playing around with my hand
Momo may have attention deficit disorder if he can't focus and is easily distracted. LOL
I'm pretty sure he does 😂
@@MomoSiamese I totally understand bec I have ADD myself.
He wants to know why he has to shake for a treat and the other cats don’t. You need to think outside the box or put yourself in his paws 🐾 to fully understand.
I am on day one! My cat has already been trained to sit, so that helps. I am planning on doing it 3x per day this week. We'll see how it goes 😊
Good luck!
New sub, ty ♥️
Welcome to our little family!
We're hoping this will work with our boy Newgate. He tried biting our fingers looking for treats after we stopped
Good luck!
thank you! this worked with my kitty in 2 weeks ^^
That's amazing! Congrats!
Well I taught my cat how to sit and this is my next venture
Good luck!
Siamese shake hand..😂
I touched my cats paw and he grabbed my hand I thought it was working until he took it towards his mouth and bit me
Attenzione! Il cibo mi sembra troppo duro. La mia Regina del Siam ha 13 anni e purtroppo, di recente, ha perso i due incisivi superiori
Hes working you.
Pretty sure he trained us and not us him
