Hack to Teach Your Cat to High Five – Video!

December 3, 2021 By: Summer Samba20 Comments

Summer has a hack to teach your cat to high five, in this short video - and it's without a clicker!

My human and I wanted to do a short video on how to teach your cat to high five. While doing research, we came across an awesome hack from another YouTuber. And no clicker is needed. (Yes, she gets credit in my video.)

Somali cat with two disposable cups

The funny part was I’d never tried this hack before, so when we were practicing before shooting the video, I did it wrong! You’re supposed to put your paw in the cup, but I was just sticking my whole face in. Which is why my human mentions in the video that paper cups are better. A cat could get her head stuck in a cup, but a paper one makes it less likely. By the time we shot the video, I’d figured out I was supposed to put my paw in the cup, so you won’t see that mistake. And I am kind of glad about that. Anyhow, you can see the video below.

And as always, if you got something out of my video, please do stop by YouTube and give it a Like. It helps out my channel lots! Plus, if you want a slightly more detailed version of this hack, I link to the YouTuber I learned this hack from in my description there.

    That is a really cool hack! Lexy does high fives. Our mom never really taught her, she just did it. Me, on the other paw, I refuse. MOL

    Great technique. We could probably teach “high five” to Pearl because she naturally lifts a paw to get anything you’re holding.

    Some people (kitties) are just fast learners – like you.
    Thanks for sharing the learning video. This should help
    a lot of other cats if they want to learn high 5’s and byes.

    Great hack. That wouldn’t work for Reesie because we have yet to find a treat she likes.

    Going to give that a go, although I can’t see my little monster Toffee being amenable! Worth a try though.

    Ooooo! That was a pawsome video.
    It makes perfect sense that that would be the way to learn to do the high 5 🙂

    Purrs, Julie
