The next thing to do is put them on a surface that will bring you and your cat eye to eye. When your cat starts to wander off, call out their name in a stern voice and tell them to stay. Put your hand up as to say stop. After your cat does this, you should reinforce it by giving him a bite of the treat.

The next trick that you can try is "come". This should be easy; you have already taught your cat to stay. He now knows when you are teaching him something that there is going to be yummy rewards.
