I'd say you're lucky. I wish my kitten would listen to me when I tell him to get off my bed or to stop chewing on computer wires. I'm trying to train him, slowly but surely.Every morning the two of them race towards me and somehow or the other Chotu ends up sitting in my lap. He fights (playfully) with Nemo to get to me first, to get my attention. This is pretty much their routine and so far this is not getting old for them.
I don't know much about how intelligent cats can be. I just know that Nemo understands simple words like stop, no, down, up, relax, home etc. And I never have to tell her twice.
Is this normal ?
