Ohhh. I got Cotton’s fav foods today. I started to clicker train to get him used to click = treat.  Unfortunately he is afraid of the clickers noise. HE used to take food from my hand no problem.  Now he is leary to do so.  In fact he stopped taking food from me adn when I place it in front of him too. I stopped using the clicker. Maybe I just praise him and sound all excited like I used to when he did something I liked. Like his happy jump. Darn. Thats dissapointing. OH well. Maybe Ruby will get the hang of it. She is young yet. Maybe the noise won’t frighten her.

Since Cotton is used to verbal praises I should just stick with that. I can work on holding a foot and a toe daily in small spurts to get them both used to having their feet handled like the book said. Without using the clicker on Cotton.  Just voice and food.

I wanted to teach him to sit  up. He does that anyway when he is on the floor begging.

I forget Cotton is alert to all noises. So the clicker noise probably scares him. PHoooey
