    Cats just require a different approach. But it’s far from impossible to train them as long as you adapt, just as you would for any various species of animal. This guy has figured out how to train cats and he’s hardly the only one.

    Lots of cats big and small are very social, even if they don’t form packs in the wild.

      Yes, cats can form groups when this offers them advantages in food and survival, as is frequently seen in stray cats, but they are anarchic groups, without fixed leadership. Naturally you can train cats, but only if they see an advantage in following what they have learned, they must be convinced to follow your instructions, which is much more complicated than in the case of dogs.
