Yeah, definitely NOT that easy! I know a girl who's an actress in LA, and recently got her dog (a Pit mix named "Pongo") signed with an animal agent. He finally got his first gig, and spent like 5 hours on set for a few seconds of background "air time." Not sure how much he got paid, but probably not the equivalent of what I earn as a librarian in 5 hours.

And how many dogs/cats can remain patient for that long, then turn it on when they're commanded? My dog is extremely calm and well-behaved, but I took him to SEE a movie (in the park) one evening, and had to leave when he got bored after about 30 minutes... he just stood up, blocking the folks sitting behind us, and stared at me like "can we go do something interesting now?". So it does take a special kind of animal for that work, especially when we're talking about cats. Heck, I can't even get my cats to sit still for a nail clipping.

P.S. One of my cats (Oswald) is very clever and food-motivated, so I was able to teach him "high-fives" and "fist bumps" within one evening... but he's also extremely skittish, and would BOLT if I ever put him in room/stage surrounded by strangers. As would most cats.

We saw cats in San Diego perform.They were strays and brought in and trained to walk tightropes, jump through barrels, all sorts of antics. The show was about 20 minutes (that portion of it). It was amazing. I didn't even realize cats were capable of all that. I thought they only trained their pet parents when they wanted to eat.
