Clever cat alert: One of our cats is no longer allowed in the garage. Why? She figured out how to open the garage door!

Opens cupboard doors. Comes when you say come here. Trots faster when you say hurry up. Stops at open doors, not running out.Digs her favorite toy out of the basket. Knows when it's brushing, meal and treat time. Learning to shake hands. She was found by a dumpster in February, trying to paw up frozen garbage. Only 3 months old. Now, my rescue girl is 11, and a joy every day!

We have a 13 yr old ginger boy named Alfred who is very intelligent. I have a very large abdominal hernia that causes great pain and nausea when it bulges out. When that happens, I have to lay on the bed and my husband has to push it back in. Alfred kitty has learned that when I'm crying out in pain and laying down, he jumps up on me and sits, right where my hernia is. It's like he's assisting my husband! 😽😽😽

Our Tio (a rescue) learned his new name in less than a week. Our Marra (not a cuddler) sat on our laps and slept with us when we were sick (and only then) and once even brought a nurse immediately to me when I needed quick attention. Very smart.

I have 4 cats….. from uninterested in hoomans. And one that is brilliant… with one right behind. My 4th cat is a mixed bag. Hard to judge. She was abandoned, but she was almost a year old. She adopted me when she was about 11. I’ve spent a little over $1000 on medical bills the first two years. Shots, check ups, flea and tick, and the best food. This little lady is going no place, nightmares of her life on the street are still with her. She’s extremely affectionate, almost too much, and she loves sitting in your lap. But all of her fears make things difficult for her.

I have a 17-year-old kitty whom I deeply and dearly love, but she is not exactly what I would call a “clever” cat. To be completely honest, she’s always been a little bit on the dim side, and this video doesn’t really do much of anything to change my mind. She does tick some of the boxes, though - she’s fairly emotionally sensitive to my needs, and has decent observational skills and interacts pretty consistently well with her environment. She’s not *stupid*, or anything. But I’d never delude myself into thinking she’s particularly intelligent, even for a cat. Doesn’t have a whole lot to do with her being an awesome cat, or how much I love her, though.

Many signs of and types of intelligence. My brain starts imagining cats judging their humans on their human's curiosity, memory, socialization skills, adaptive skills, etc.

According to this, and I suspected this all along, my orangie is dumb as a brick. But I love him anyways.

She howled and meowed for 10 days straight when we moved an hour away from our old house.

One of my cats demonstrates that the lights are on but nobody’s home. 😂😂

my 2 year old male tuxedo Nick is super clever and smart, love him so much. Got him from a bad hoarding situating but he is doing great!

When my cat was a kitten she would take the stopper out of the sink. I stopped up the sink, but saw her carrying it in her mouth later. I stopped up the sink again and watched. She figured out how to unstop the sink with her paw and take the stopper out.

I suspect that most cats are very clever.

I have only 1 cat now. He is affectionate and friendly. Last week i was pickinh up dried clothes from the clothes line on my balcony n minou my cat wanted to show me ethusiastically how easy it is to jump from one side to another and well i was standing in between n he instead fell down on his feet. My! He was upset and he was even funny about it 😅 he stretched his paw to beat me up for oreventing him from reaching the other side successfully. Minou understands the meaning of a french word "gateau" and "sardines" and consoles me when i am sad or upset. He knows i need him then. But he also cuddles up a lot. He loves the daily cuddles and talks to him every morning n evening. I never explored this before. Minou was a surprise birthday gift with his 3 siblings who have been stolen. He was left alone unexpectedly. Thats y I talk to him all the time. I wish i could take him for rides for shopping in the car and for walks too. People tend to upset and beat up cats and illtreat them. If you cant love a kitty better never to adopt any kitty. Because a kitty isnt just a furry friend but an angel sent by God for us to forget woes and sadness worries and fears loneliness and bad past experiences too.

All my cats were clever. My beloved Simba actually used the toilet..not often, but I caught him in action, and it was hilarious. My latest cat stays next to or on me when I'm not feeling well. My others did that as well. I just love them❤❤❤

True for cats too: A friend of my brother’s, trying to rehome his dog, gave this reason: Hey man, this dog’s too smart for his own good. I don’t want no smart dog. Give me a dumb dog any day. The smart ones, they’re too much trouble, always gettin’ into stuff. I want me a dumb dog. Nice and quiet. No hassles.

My Tuxie is such a smart girl. 🥰🥰🥰

They are beautiful and amazing animals 😊❤❤❤

I like this channel so glad I found it! I have some very clever cats, I have a cat that can open zip lock cans of food! My ginger male learned to steal the small cans of food and he DROPS them from the top of the cat stand and some how he pushes the lids in. The only reason I know he drops them from the top of the stand is I walked in one day while the crime was in progress...btw his nick name is Sleazy Cheesy Lemon Squeezy and he's a thief.

I have a black cat and he's a very smart cat.

There is clever cat and then there is clever and mischievous cat. Whom I am dealing with everyday. He is a smartass. Though I don't fall into his tricks at times .😅

My cats were all smart enough to choose me as a "cat mom". 😊

According to this, my Cat is an Einstein.

My kitty is rather smart ide say, she’s very vocal when she wants something and will make sure we know what it is she wants from us xD she loves getting into and out of boxes and is a TP menace I have to lock away my Tp so she doesn’t shred the roll, I’ve tried cabinets, high places (im 1.9m)

😅minou knows that the back door leads to his cat box and even acts diplomatically towards popi my dog 😅. He turns into a monster cat when other cats come to fight with him and runs to me for help because he just turned 8 months animal years. He behaves like a 4 year old toddler

My cat is cognatively challenged, or neurodivergent, apparently.

The fact that cats are intelligent isn't a surprise to me just to people that feel that they are superior to all non human beings and some human beings as well, that tells me that people like that are out of their dang minds.

They think very similar to us but without a deep understanding of language and certain complex concepts. They do have a basic sense of humour. Their thoughts aren't much different to ours. Just less complex in certain ways. They don't understand how to read or write but they do understand what words mean. Another example they don't understand the need to learn to drive but they understand you do and just accept it. You use machines to perform tasks around the house so they don't find it unusual that you drive a car, they just can't understand the point of driving. To them it doesn't make sense but they've seen you do it so it's just something you you do to them. Same with television they know you watch it they do with you too but you understand what is happening they just see you watching it and accept it. They express their desires and opinions normally through body language because they don't talk so they've never evolved to understand language.

Mr. "I was a child prodigy at 3" (AKA my ex-husband) didn't find our kitty so smart; he thought she had a brain the size of a walnut & I guess they thought back then that size mattered more in brain activity than they do now. Tiny little squirrels have brains & they're too clever for anyone's good.

My cat eats with her right paw, just like a human

So we’re just not going to talk about the red eyed cat at 3:00?
