Cat has been taught to use a human toilet.
''I guess it's a pretty rare thing. I mentioned it at work and everyone was pretty amazed.''
Luke Evans, owner of the feline, Salem, decided to teach his four-legged friend the helpful trick after growing tired of his litter tray smelling, and joked he is going to teach the nine-month-old kittie to flush the toilet next.
He is quoted by the Daily Mirror newspaper as saying: ''Sometimes we hear him scratching at the seat but it's only when we step into the bathroom and see the evidence in the toilet that we know for sure.
''He can't use the flush yet - he needs more training for that.
''It took a couple of months for him to pick it up - we used a child's toilet training seat at first
''I guess it's a pretty rare thing. I mentioned it at work and everyone was pretty amazed.''
Salem is also able to shake paws and roll over, and Luke is now teaching him to fetch.
