Examples of Clicker Training Underway at Humane Society of Pinellas

Annette Caldwell and some other volunteers at the Humane Society of Pinellas are undertaking a program of clicker training to help showcase cats’ intelligence and ability to be trained in the hopes that our adult cats will be just as desired as our kittens for adoption.

We’ve prepared a couple of short videos showcasing two of these cats; Hogan and Shy Boy. Both are currently available for adoption at the Humane Society of Pinellas. If you’re interested in adopting these cats, please get in touch the Humane Society of Pinellas. If you want to know more about clicker training, contact either myself, or the trainer featured in these videos, Annette Caldwell. And keep your eyes peeled, because we’ll be posting more of these videos in the future.

Clicker Training

This website belongs to Annette Caldwell, one of my friends who also volunteers at Humane Society of Pinellas with me.

Annette held a training that I attended on clicker training. I learned a lot and wanted to share. It’s really amazing how smart cats are and how we underestimate them. I haven’t met a kitty yet that hasn’t caught on to it.

Contact Annette or myself if you’d like more information.
