I've accidentally trained someone that when she bonks me with her head she gets a treat. Good times lol

@Gibsonisafluffybutt @briongloid Nawww, how cute 😻

I've inadvertently trained two of our babies to chatter when I pick up a ball, and the third to run down the corridor in preparation.

Also, we inadvertently trained one of our babies to SPRINT to the kitchen as soon as the fridge door opens.

(Yes, wifey and I have three cats.)

well you're doing better than I am.

First it was a little nibble on my arm. So this is much better

Mine shakes hands for a treat. Sits on my desk and holds out a paw…
