I'm looking to adopt an older cat (not sure of the age, but at least over five) at my humane society. I don't know much about it yet as I've only seen it once, and am getting more info on it today.
But my experience with a lot of the shelter cats is that they nave names posted on their cages and stuff, but if you call their name they don't react. No reaction as in their ears dont perk or anything, although they do respond to other general friendly 'come here' noises.
So can you teach a cat that's older a name like you would a kitten, instead of always just having to make noises to get them to come or look at you?
