You can. It is called operant conditioning. It is the absolute base upon which everything that is living, learns. Action equals action. The action that follows the initial action, is only one of three things; reward, negative consequence, or nothing. By providing a steady reward to cement the action wanted, you create the effect you wish. All you have to figure out, is how to get them to smack The bell in order to present the reward.

Annie's latest food obsession (and mine!) is Bellwether Farms Plain Sheep Milk Yogurt. O.F.! (Orgasm food) I don't give her a lot- it's quite rich- just a little dab to lick off my finger. She loves it!

Have to rehome my Kitty.. for real this time. I am heartbroken. I will have nothing that gives a shit that I am there..no pet to greet me when I get home..no pet to snuggle up with.. I will be utterly alone..

Oh no, very sad. Truly sorry to hear this. What happened? Not allowed to have a pet?

Big big hug to you, Tree. When you're ready, there are so many animals who'd be beyond fortunate to live life with you. In the meantime, I'm sorry for your pain.

Thank you everyone. He has always been a pisser. He's not happy.. he pees. I Have gone through everything I know to stop it.. had him checked, he's healthy.. just something is upsetting him. I can't get him to stop. So I need yo be fair to him, and find him somewhere that he WILL be happy. But I am still sad that it can't be here with me.
