Thanks! Good to know about the I-sound (assuming hard I). Perhaps other I-words might do instead of "come" and "off/stop". I'm not really expecting the cats to learn their names. Usually "tsk tsk tsk" grabs their attention and after that it's up to them if they come or whatever.

I live by a wonderful park and I may get them used to wearing a harness (better than a leash) so that eventually I can take them for walks. Most cats aren't into this, but some will.

You can try "here" instead of "come", and "sit" instead of "off/stop".
