How To Train Your Kitten

Cats make some of the best pets because they are so self sufficient. However, you have to know how to train them so that they turn out this way.


Cats make the best pet because they are self sufficient. Unfortunately not all cats act the same way. Some are more moody than others. It is important that you understand how to train them while they are kittens so they do as you want when they are older.

The first thing you need to do is understand the kind of training to use on them. They have different personalities and a few might withdraw into themselves or act aggressively to the wrong training you utilize. Endeavor to honor them with food or love - whichever is the best motivation for them. Remember that hurt is not a type of punishment that should ever be utilized on animals.

When you are disciplining them you should get on their level. This shows them that you are serious and they will pay more attention. When they misbehave it is frequently helpful to use a plant sprayer or water gun that is full of water. Many cats do not like water and will get the message instantly. Spray them when they misbehave - but don抰 yell at them.

If the water doesn抰 work than you have to try to surprise them. Keep a bean bag nearby to throw at them if they do something wrong. Make sure that the bag does not hit them in anyway. You are only attempting to surprise them and stop whatever they are doing. Do it instantly! If you wait till they finish they will not know why they are in trouble.

If you are experiencing aggressive cat problems than the best thing you are able to do is to tap gently on their nose. Remember that pain is not an option. Simply tap on the nose and talk to them in way that makes them understand that biting and scratching is not allowed.
