Training your cat: five golden rules

ADVERTISEMENT

They say cats can’t be trained. It’s just they don’t respond to the same training as dogs. The best way to train your cat is to make sure that whatever you want to teach her is extremely rewarding and pleasurable.

  1. Avoid reprimands and punishments

Intimidating your cat into doing what you want is never a good idea. Cat’s don’t react well to punishments. They don’t understand it and will make them frightened of their owner. Try to make your relationship fun, rewarding, and playful instead.

3. Do start early if possible

It’s easier to train a kitten than an adult cat. But adults can still learn. Start training a new cat soon after he gets settled into your home.

4. Make time for playtime

When cats are bored, they can be overly active and destructive. That is usually a sign that they feel neglected. Make sure you set time for regular play sessions and relaxing massages to calm your cat down.

5. Don’t plan long sessions

Training sessions shouldn’t be very long. In general, sessions of 5-10 minutes work best for training cats. You can repeat the session several times a day when you’re working on teaching a specific command.
