[net.pets] training cats to use the john

I recall seeing a book a few years ago written by a couple who
train cats for movies, t.v. commercials, etc. They have been able
to train cats to do amazing things, including using AND FLUSHING
the toilet! I can't remember the names involved; look for a book
on cat training written by a man & woman jointly.

Neither of my two Siamese cats have managed to use the john,
however the male (relevant?) has flushed it on a least two
occasions.  It's very disturbing to here it flush in the middle
of the night when your the only one home, and you are in the
bed, not the bathroom.

Personally I can't imagine sharing the throne with a cat,
it hardly seems antiseptic, but aren't cat's the KING's of the
jungle (:-).

P.S. They know all about toilet paper too!
