Now the funniest part about this is that Jasper is very likely the stupidest cat in the world (or at least in Danville). He's very scared of people he doesn't know and often runs into large objects while running away from them. He also likes to lick things, like the floor or a piece of plastic or our bedpost or a table or anything that's smooth. (He especially likes to lick photos, so if we have any laying around we have to lay them upside down so he doesn't lick the chemicals off.) So, of all the cats in the world, you'd think this one would be the one you could never train to give you five. Go figure!
Maybe some day I'll get a picture of this amazing cat feat, but in the meantime, here's a picture of him lounging around.

If arguably the dumbest cat on the planet can be taught to give me "five," doesn't this prove conclusively that cats are smarted than dogs?
Well, I think that all your comment proves is that cat people cannot spell "smarter." Besides, wasn't it you who pointed out to me that you didn't think he was really getting it??? I, on the other hand, a dog person, was the one who had faith that a little kitty could do it. Maybe it was all of those years working with those smarty-pants dogs.
