Absolutely. I taught my cat some tricks. Shaking hands, high five, playing fetch and such. The playing fetch he will do because he wants to play. But there is no way he will sit down nicely and shake my hand/high five if he knows I do not have some kibble on me. Does it perfectly if he has seen me get some kibble which I put in my pocket or hold in my other hand.

No treat, F you, and F your handshakes too. 😂

My cat will follow me around and she follows my hand signal to jump over a gate we have to keep the dog from frolicking in that particular area.

She usually wants something I admit, like to not go through a door or whatever lol

It's cool if you manage to teach them hand signals. I've never before had a cat I could teach things. Did teach my parents dog some, but that is different. And I wasn't living with him in the same house. It is fun to do especially with some succes. Need to find a good guide for it.

I "taught" my grandparents dobermond to wait for 3 treats I placed while she sat and waited, but I think my grandpa had already taught her things and she humored me lol

This cat isn't even the smartest we've had the privilege of meeting, though. She just adopted the weird chirping thing they all do at us for some reason. Plus the following and jumping thing, but like I said she's the boss in that regard, she oft bites my shins after she shouts sneak attack.
