SIR SALMON THE KITTEN PLAYING REVERSE CAT'S CRADLE SHOESTRING TAKEDOWN GAME ON BAR STOOL CHAIR RUN

In the beginning - when Sir Salmon first moved in - I had draped the shoelaces over the chair rungs just to get them off the floor while I swept...

And you can see now how it's turned into an Official Fun Kitten Game ©️®️™️ to play.

Somehow I must have accidentally turned off the record button (ding dang hypersensitive controls anyway), because I lost some cute footage of him coming over & nuzzling the camera :(

NOTE: Sir Salmon's been tearing up my hand with his razor-sharp lethal claw weaponry - I have since clipped the tips. He didn't like it. But he did like the neck massage that went along with it. Maybe I can get some footage of that next time?

This is how I train my cats: Positive reinforcement + the power of association = pretty soon he will associate claw clipping with neck massages & it won't be such a chore.
