I always had cats a long as I can remember.
You can't TEACH them to do anything, they do what they want and are remarkably good at that.
If you want it to catch those pesty Indian Mynas they will just stare at it a little, then focus on finding the most ideal position for a nap.
On other days you will find the neighbour's budgie that escaped it's cage placed stiff and orderly on you door mat.
That said we have been surprised with a couple of Indian Mynas. The cat can catch, just not when asked too.
There is another thing, cats catch and let go again. Our cat can catch a butterfly several times and let it free again. Then the butterfly takes off as if nothing happened.
