Awesome
That's wondeful! The great thing about clicker training is the variety of approaches you can take to teaching any one behavior. For example, you could teach targeting (teach your cat to target the stick and then transfer the target to your leg) or you could click for putting the paw consecutively closer and closer to your leg until it is on your leg. I'm sure there are a number of other choices. Good luck!
