I'm gonna be that girl
But this is operant conditioning ! Get that cat to the opera house! *person leans* oh.. I've just been informed operant and opera don't have anything to do with each other. That's just rather silly.

He produces the same tone three times in succession, yet he strikes two clearly different keys. I mean, what are we-- to believe that this is some sort of a-- a magic piano or something?
laserfrog
Why does the light start off? I think the cue was the light and not the music.
OmegaKamidake
That's part of the teaching phase.
SledgeAntilles
Sure was!
apricot2jam
good one
OldenPickles
That would have gotten me to learn how to play.
HillOfBeans
Klieg lights motivate you, eh?
ardtay
Or cat food?
bigdix69420
Hes not playing the same note 3 times
juffowup00
Hmmm.. could this work for hunams as well?

Only Jim knows for sure.

Unless they're going for a pun, this is clearly operant conditioning...
vonbaronhans
Prompt > trick > treat is not classical conditioning. That's operant conditioning. Classical conditioning would be matching a natural behavior (which has a natural stimulus) to an artificial stimulus (e.g. a bell), usually by presenting the natural and artificial stimuli together, until you can induce the behavior using only the artificial stimulus.

That cat looks like he's cowering at the start, like this is a process it hates.
brucom
Did Pavlov think about feeding his dog when he heard a bell ring?
TinyLiehon
Beethoven? That's music for dogs. Pretty sure that in cat culture teaching your cat Beethoven is considered a cat move.

Moonlight Sonata is probably my single favorite piece of music ever written. It is hauntingly beautiful.
ididntgetthejobatfruitloops

Resident evil made me love this song even more when you open the secret door with this song

You might like Debussy as well.
DoctorSniffles
That snapping DeBussy
RuffyRuffHausen
No no no, only the Bach
guyanesebro420
Always finish on thr Bach, never DeBussy
UnattendedDeviant
I'm pretty sure the cat has heard this song many times. Especially if they leave NPR on the radio on when they leave for work. Cat already knew what notes to play. ....soo, I'm not convinced with the "training" claims.

Fun fact: Beethoven's favorite food was macaroni with fresh parmesan cheese melted over it.
MasterMookie
So mac and cheese
3Davideo
I have no idea if that's true but it does sound tasty.
ByronGetronfree
The cat’s is lasagna.
Raileks
pretty sure it was eukanuba https://imgur.com/8a5AV3M

yes

Large dogs in that range actually eat very little per day. The calories burned to stand up and ask for leftover human food is a lot lower than the effort to bother.

(They don't move much, thus don't eat much compared to a high energy dog 1/3rd the weight like border collie or husky)

Not sure that's accurate. I have a 107-lb. blue Great Dane who often gets mistaken for a greyhound or a weimaraner. She eats 6 cups of kibble a day, 7 if we've been really active.
