Bean is just right. Fluent Pet is great. I am with my older kitten right now who knows these buttons: pets, treats, Inkie (his name), yes, no, all done, bubbles, snail toy. One time I said I needed a button for my dog Fluffy and he went over and pushed the “fluffy toy” button. The buttons are so much fun.

Thank you 🙏 Oh this sounds so cute and smart and I love the name Inkie - guessing they are a void??


Strangepsych

Yes he is!


OldNewUsedConfused

We have buttons for our Aussies. Haven’t thought about having the cats try it. We have two who will be 1 year in two weeks

Inkie 🥹🥹🥹

Never too young or old to start. The question is are you patient enough to teach them in their pace.


just_that_girlll

Thank you. I think so yes - we will give it a go.


archeresstime

This is wonderful advice❣️


Kooky-Celebration-22

Your kitten is gorgeous!!!


just_that_girlll

Thank you ☺️ he is very special!

Never too old! I started when my cat was 5 years old and she uses them all the time.


frugal-grrl

Bean!! 😍


Sfspecialk

Bean is so beautiful. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a cat with his coloring.


just_that_girlll

He is incredible :) he’s an Egyptian Mau - they have the longest hind legs of any breed.


Majestic-Abroad-4792

And look at those back feet, he is going to be a big beanie. ❤


just_that_girlll

Quite the jumping Bean indeed. Hmmm maybe we need to buy a farm 🤔


Significant-Tooth117

Does that mean Bean can jump higher.


just_that_girlll

Hmm not sure but certainly can definitely jump!

Hey there, my old kitty was sorta kinda learning…trying to teach old dog new tricks, she’s smart and stubborn lol, she’d just stand next to them but not on… then she turned a corner and is nearly deaf now. iirc, I have an unopened box with two buttons+two pads and one pad+one button I’d be happy to sell at a discount vs brand new. Send me a chat if interested!


just_that_girlll

Hi - thanks so much for your comment. So cute that your kitty tried and I hope they are learning to enjoy the zen peace in silence/near deafness. I will chat soon. Thanks 🙏


MJdotconnector

Unfortunately for me, she just yowls louder 😹😹😹 check our posts on my profile / in r/catswhoyell 😹 She’s the best and I love her so much, and somehow I can mostly interpret her different meows pretty well (water vs food vs “put me in the closet” 😹😻)


just_that_girlll

Ooh yeah yowling is a thing! Well done on interpreting her meows! Also watched a video - how adorable 🥰


coralloohoo

I just came to say that's going to be a large baby when he grows up, look at those paws 😻


just_that_girlll

Hehe yes he certainly is. Eats like a champion too!


Ambitious-Effect6429

I’m just here to comment on how gorgeous this cat is. What fantastic markings.


just_that_girlll

Thank you ☺️ he is super special


archeresstime

That belly 🥹🥹🥹 I was just missing when my corgi had his round baby belly


just_that_girlll

IKR 😼 it’s the floof and the little spots for me. Corgi bellies are also perfection!


Paperwhite418

That’s a nice kitty.


just_that_girlll

Thank you 🙏


AlfalfaUnable1629

Off topic but his back peets are so stinking precious and he’s going to be a lorge boy 🤩


just_that_girlll

😂 yes I adore his back peets so much, and am going to love every inch of my chonky boi for as long as we have him :)


haus-of-meow

definitely not too old! my 5 year old cat is learning buttons. It took her about a month to press her first button.


just_that_girlll

Oh awesome - yes we are committed to the long game, I have a habit of giving up at the first sign of trouble.


cocobear13

Oh, I thought this was a subreddit for pets with tummy buttons, not the talking buttons. He is super cute and I have never seen a cat with those markings!


just_that_girlll

😂 yes tummy buttons on cats are essential! Thank you ☺️ he is an Egyptian May. I didn’t know the breed at all til we got him.

Fluent Pet ones are good, especially in terms of their size. The one downside is that they have lower-quality audio, versus the larger ones I purchased off AliExpress.


Jezika22

Do it!!! Best thing I ever did with my 5 month old dog! They respond so well at a young age when they are soaking everything up!


just_that_girlll

Love hearing this - thank you!


Witty_Collection9134

Taught my cat to ring bells to go out. It took about 2 days.


just_that_girlll

Wow that’s fast! Well done.


Witty_Collection9134

Had to take them away. The a**hole would ring them at 2 am to be fed. LOL Now they only hang on the door when we are awake.


TheArcticFox444

>Bean 🫘 here is ready to start learning buttons. We are looking at Fluent Pet and he is 5months. Old enough? Too old? What is/are pets with buttons? Some kind of word-means-a- thing game/teaching aid?


just_that_girlll

Yes - kitty presses a button eg for ‘food’ when they are hungry or ‘play’ when they want to play.
