The mistake that most cat owners do is they think that cats cannot be trained or it s a complete head ache to do it!
But it s not! In fact training your cat can be as easy as training your dog, maybe even easier, if you get the fundamentals down.
Just don t expect kitty to fetch or play dead. But you can train your cat to be an obedient little pet that isn t considered a danger to the house. Just by applying some SIMPLE cat training techniques you re on your way to having that perfect little feline pet that won t destroy your furniture, that won t make war with your dog, that won t jump on the table and eat your food while you re in the bathroom, that won t chew all your plants away, that won t make your house a complete mess while you re gone at work, that won t snap at your other pets, that won t sabotage your good night sleep and that won t be anything less than a perfect cute little KITTY!
Phew! That sounds like a lot of training to do to get all those things solved.
Fortunately for you it s easier than it sounds! Once you start applying some simple cat training principles your on your way to having a proper house trained cat that will leave all your neighbors jealous.
So what shall you do? Well first of all get a litter box and keep it clean and away from the place he eats. Then get a sprinkling gun! And spray some water on kitty whenever you catch him in the act of doing something you don t want him to be doing like being on the counter, etc.
Cats generally are clean creatures and they prefer to use the litter box rather, because it s similar to sand (outdoors) and your cat will generally avoid relieving himself anywhere near where he eats or where humans eat so make sure you keep the litter box away from those places and make sure it s in an private place/
The sprinkling gun should only be used if you catch your cat in the act, and never after. Don t punish your cat! Cats are sensible creatures. So the water sprayer should be the only punishment. Punishing your cat by physical assault will make kitty fear you and this, in turn, will damage your relationship with your cat, which is NOT A GOOD IDEA if you want to train him. We want to train kitty not make him run away.
If your cat chews on plants or electrical wires then put some garlic powder on them. That will make him stay away from them.
If you cat jumps up on the counter often put some little pebbles so he won t have a very nice landing. Next time he ll avoid it. This will make it associate in kitty s mind that it s not really a good idea to do that anymore.
If your cat scratches the furniture give him something else to scratch instead. Also you can get some special tools from a local pet store that you can stick on your furniture that will make kitty s scratching days not very pleasant.
You can get creative with this! So you see, it s quite easy to train your cat. All you need to do is apply these, make some safety measures and have a little bit of patience.
