Mine too, my new kitten Neo jumped upon my shoulder when I went to adopt him from my good friends, my question is, how do I stop Neo, my new kitten from climbing my legs as if they were tree trunks? Many people like jeans with holes in, but I don't :)) Neo likes to sit on my shoulder while I work at my standing desk. He needs training, so I am glad I found this awesome video!

I have a cat that started doing this on her own. I can’t sit down or pick her up without her going for my shoulders. Training her NOT to do this is the trick! 😹 Once, I even laid down on my couch to see if she would prefer the soft cushions over my narrow shoulders. Not only did she not get off, she made herself more comfortable and fell asleep! 😂

I found them through that short last week too! I’ve been binging ever since 😄

I started this training last night. My poor girl would either crane her neck way over my shoulder to eat or if I moved the bowl too far she would jump down. I finally got her to put her paws on my shoulder by laying face down on the floor and draping a mat she's already trained to sit on, on my back. Sometimes I'm glad no one's watching me train. Today she would eat with her paws on my shoulder from a chair as long as I put the mat on my shoulder. Should go more smoothly from here, she's a quick learner once she understands what you want. Thanks for the tutorial!

I love your Bengal, he is such a PRETTY cat!

Okay you're amazing thank you! I'm so curious did you make this up yourself or learn from someone? Brilliant in any case

I taught my fur baby through repetition by putting her on my shoulders every time i carried her, the problem is now she prefers to climb up onto my shoulders every time I only want to normal carry her lol. But she also knows when I want her off, every time I lean towards the table or a counter, or I crouch down she gets off no problem

My cat has started to sit on the back of the sofa recently so I’m very pleased to see he’s already got a bit of a start.

Our bengal cat loved sitting on my shoulders since he was a puppy and I didn't have to train him. Now this has became a problem though! 😂 He's used to walking on a leash, so we often meet strangers that stop us to have a chat. It happened twice that he jumped on the shoulders of strangers when in a stressful situation, like for instance when too many people approached him or a loud car was passing by. This actually scared me because I don't know what trouble he could cause next.

@OutdoorBengal

Hey, makes sense.. Mia also has learned to use the shoulder as her escape route / safe place. I try to always be that shoulder available but it's true that might be a probelm one day. When on leash, it should be easy to prevent that from happening.... What was exactly the situation?

he learned in like two days

Thank you so much! I've been doing something similar with my cat. He has always been clingy and I've never seen any reason to seperate myself from him so I figured I might as well prepare him to travel around with me. He is already really good and comfortable with being on my shoulder but my main problem was getting him to jump up there on his own. (I typically have to pick him up lol.) I started with squatting with my back to a wall, and he would jump up there. Then slowly inching taller and taller but now he will just launch himself at me and expect me to automatically catch him- I can't walk past my sofa without having to defend myself from a flying feline! I'll try and follow your steps a bit and see how it goes! (I also have my cat trained to a specific cl8cking noise that I used to train my horses instead of a clicker so if you can't afford one then it's fine!)

Good film!!My cat can do this trick too.

Now that targetting is going well we are going to build up to floor to shoulder jumps! Bonsai (my Bengal) is very comfortable on my shoulders already as he discovered when we first got him a few weeks ago that it was a good perch to get a ride around the house on. Today I had him climb his cat tree (about shoulder hight) and get on my shoulders from there using finger targetting. The only thing different is he prefers to stand on my shoulder, not lay over it like Mia, so he's a bit less stable.

@OutdoorBengal

3 жыл бұрын

Mia likes standing as well. Try to lower the food below your shoulder, that should make the trick. Also, when he needs more stability, he'll get low and claw you, don't worry! :)

My cat just sits on my shoulder. He always has since he was a lil kitten(4weeks) especially at the vet he would always cuddle against my head. :)

My ragdoll kitten is bigger than Mia even now, but I'm still willing to teach her this trick. We don't use clicker as it is not very handy for us, but I'm pretty sure we'll succeed nevertheless. Will start today with a bit of malt paste on my finger. Thank you for your tips!

Your videos are awesome !! I've managed to train my adult rescue cat to put her two front paws on my shoulder (the first step you show) ! Yay ! Do you have a suggestion for a cat who uses her claw to try and get the treat closer to her ? My fingers are getting injured ! 😅🙈

@OutdoorBengal

3 жыл бұрын

To teach them not to claw (in this or any trick) is to use a spoon (so you don't get hurt in the process). Whenever the move their murder mittens, they don't get rewarded, if they approach with the head, they can eat. :)

I don't have a cat, but these are some good lessons for the future

I enjoy you and Mia. Prep classes until I rescue a kitten

My cat sits on my shoulders. I can walk him for hours. The only thing is he gets a-lot of attention and then people try to ask questions and that is when he gets a bit skittish and loud. I want to make him feel comfortable when he's been on my shoulders for awhile and there is new attention paid to him - attention that might not speak "cat."

Thank you for another great video Albert! For me, the biggest challenge is to make my cat actually stay on my shoulders! She is a very energetic Abyssinian that jumps on everyone’s shoulders all the time… even on visitors LOL… but she jumps off in about 10 sec… only to jump on again few min later. I take her for a walk on my shoulder and she tries to get off any time she sees a bird or a squirrel. Any tips on how to make her stay put?

I enjoy all of your videos and they were such a big help when Ripple was a kitten - this shoulder one has become more challenging as I can tell Ripple is not confident standing on my knee or my shoulders (i'm not that big) now that he is 13-14lbs - he travels well on my husbands shoulders but doesn't feel confident with me - any added suggestions?

Just bought our first cat, very much like a Bengal but the tabby striped type and he seems intelligent and actually has his own teddy bear and he doesn’t go anywhere without him! If I ask him where his teddy bear is he goes and brings him to me! Is it worth encouraging the fetch game with other named items. I’m starting the shoulder training and want to but his lead and reins/harness really soon. He’s 12 weeks and hasn’t been out yet but he’s really interested in the garden we think! XxxX

My sweet kitty in my pic is a shoulder kitty. She will jump up from far away and lay around our necks.

I really want my cat sit on my shoulder but he nevers do that ... Thank uhh very much to tech ❤️

I will soon have a tortoiseshell kitten I will train her this way and take her everywhere with me thank you very much!

Great tutorial! I don't have a clicker as I don't really have the money or know about finger targeting but I'm going to watch finger targeting. I have an old and young cat, my old cat is a sort of lap cat, though, I'm just not sure how to make her understand that she can walk on my shoulder, my younger cat the same. Please help - they just get disinterested when I put it over my shoulder.

Well, I don't have a big shoulders and my cat is huge so I don't think it would work for me but it looks cool!

My Dex climbed up the first day I brought him home. He’s getting good with his balance. He was 5 wks when I brought him home now 9 wks. I will do the meal he will love that. He gets to keep me with him and some food. Yes I understand the nails. He stopped going to the middle of my back and now balances himself. We cut potatoes today. He was up there the whole time. Not afraid of water so that’s cool. Do you think some breeds are better than others. He’s half Siamese half mystery. But he loves his momma.
