The other one.

猫の芸について色々質問を受けたのですが、

One more time.

実際に教えたのはお手だけで

The other one.

他のものは慣れさせただけです。

Good boy.

ただ、参考になればと思い、今回投稿しました。

Hey guys.

先ずはお手です。

So I get a lot of questions about how I train my cats for my videos.

私がやったのはシンプルな作業の繰り返しです。

Actually, the secret is I only taught them a paw trick

まず、前足に触れられる事に慣れさせます。

and the rest are just something I made them get used to

慣れてくると、そのうち足を上げるので

so I didn’t really train them.

掴んで、すぐにご飯をあげます。

But I will explain those too if you want to try some of these with your cats.

多頭飼いの場合は、他の猫に見せることで理解の助けになるように思います。

So, here’s how I taught them a paw trick.

猫は好奇心旺盛です。

It’s nothing complicated.

家猫の場合、飼い主から与えられる物が主な娯楽になるので

I just did this every time I fed them.

真新しいものは、何でも興味を示すことが多いです。

First, grab their paw and let them get used to me doing that.

臭いを嗅ぎ、様子をうかがいます。

Then, once they get used to it, they will lift up their paw at some point.

ですから、料理の食材などは興味を示すことが多いです。

Grab it and feed them immediately.

一度覚えたら興味を無くすか、

If you have more than two cats,

興味津々かのどちらかです。

having one watch the other one do it seems to help him understand what’s going on.

ウチの猫は観察が大好きなので、

Poki, can I have this paw?

ベランダにケージを置いてあります。

Thank you.

慣れてくると、ケージの外の世界にも興味を示すようになりました。

Can I have the other one, too?

そこで、散歩に連れ出しました。

Thank you.

最初は少し緊張していましたが、

Poki!

徐々に慣れていきました。

Give me your paw.

犬だね

Thank you.

また、犬が来たね。

Can I have the other one?

犬は怖くないんだね。

Yes!

ハク、何してるの？

Give paw

誰が綺麗にすると思ってるの？

Thank you

おーい、マタタビでもあるの？？

Can I have the other one?

そりゃ、くしゃみもするよね。

Yes

大丈夫？

Good boy.

コハクが慣れてきたので、

Cats are really curious,

自転車のカゴに入れてみました。

and especially living inside the house

かなり落ち着いた性格なので、

they don't have much entertainment aside from what you give them.

特に気にする様子もなく、

So anything new in the house is exciting and interesting for them

サイクリングも楽しむようになりました。

and they just want to smell it and engage with it.

もちろん、猫によって性格が違うので、

So if you engage your kitties with your cooking by letting them smell the ingredients

外に出たがらない猫もいるでしょう。

then it's entertaining for them to watch what's going on.

ウチのポキは車が大嫌いなので、

Once they memorize the ingredient,

連れ出すことはありません。

they either lose interest...

ビックリして逃げ出すような性格の子もいるでしょう。

...or go crazy for it.

よく観察して、無理やり嫌な事をさせないのが大切です。

Since my cats like watching outside,

散歩や料理観察をしない子でも、

we got them a cage so they could go outside safely.

ユニークな癖や好みがあると思います。

Over time they got comfortable and started trying to explore outside their cage,

ナギはプラスチックを結んだものが大好きです。

so then I started taking them out for walks.

おいで。

They were kind of nervous first, but they eventually got used to it.

ポキは相変わらずです。

There's a doggie.

いつもとは違った遊び方をすると、

There's a doggie coming!

意外な一面が見られるかもしれません。

You okay?

ご視聴ありがとうございました。

You're not scared?

ポキ、お手。

Bye bye

ご飯ほしいんだね。笑

"Excuse me." Not a problem.

I guess you're not really scared of doggies, huh?

Haku, what are you doing?

Aghhh, come on!

Who do you think is gonna clean your body?!

*sigh*

What's up?

Is that cat nip or something?

*cat sneezes*

Of course you have to sneeze!

*more cat sneezes*

You okay buddy?

When Kohaku got used to that, I put him in the basket of my bike.

He's pretty laid back for a cat so he didn't mind

and now he enjoys being in the basket and going for bike rides with me.

Of course all cats have different personalities

and some may not ever be comfortable going outside.

Our cat Poki gets really stressed out by car rides so I don't take him with me.

Some cats also startle easily and may run off if they suddenly get scared.

It's important to pay attention to how your cat is acting

and not push him to do something he doesn't want to do.

Even if your cat doesn't like going for walks or watching you cook,

he probably has personality quirks that make him unique in other ways.

Nagi likes to play fetch with plastic wrappers.

*whistle* Bring it back!

Poki... is just Poki.

Try playing with your cat in different ways

and you might find something unique that he or she enjoys!

Thank you for watching!

Poki, give me your paw.

Okay, okay.

You really want food!

All right.
