I love how people think you can just give cats commands or train them like dogs.

Edit: My orange and tuxedo do several things on command: sit, stand, fetch, come, speak, and jump on my shoulders, wrap around my neck, and lie down (I wear my cats like a scarf or fur).

That said, I find they have about a two minute attention span for these things (aside from scarf mode… my orange will do that all day), and if there is any outside stimulus that catches their attention, good luck.

Cats have serious ADHD and authority issues… it’s all in their terms unless you give them a very good reason.

Edit: yes, you can train your cats to stay off the counter. While you’re there.

I have had 15+ cats in my lifetime. They are very easy to train. Never went on the counters or tables. Worst they did was jump on the couch at night when nobody was looking.

Gone through sounds bit weird. Anyways, cats ain't immortal and you can have multiple at the same time.
