Cats are incredible pets with a unique style all their own. If you have chosen a cat as a pet you probably already understand that discipling and training them requires special effort. You’ll need to some extent to understand and adapt to your pet’s unique personality traits.
Most cat owners realistically are not looking for a circus cat ready to jump through hoops. They’ll be satisfied if the litter box is used well and the furnishings are left intact.
Accordingly, it is good to realize that cats learn through experience. This may require an owner to be patient, in order to build a pattern of cause and effect. This means that if they experience a good thing they are more likely to repeat it. Also, the opposite is true if the encounter was not pleasant. So whatever there’s good behavior (like clawing the pet scratching post instead of your furniture), you’ll want to reinforce that with a good reward.
Whether it’s good or bad behavior, your cat will learn it by this method of immediate response. Delaying a reward or punishment will only confuse her. For example, if a cat is used to being fed every time it pesters you, that will reinforce the behavior. So it is important to evaluate your actions accordingly.
Training a cat to use the litter box is something that must commence when they are young. Keep in mind that cats do enjoy a clean litter box. You need to do your share to make it a pleasant experience. It has been noted that if the box isn’t cleaned regularly, but the rest of the house is cleaned, then your pet may head for the clean areas away from its box, such as the edge of a lovely rug!
With time and careful attention you will come to realize that your pet’s independent nature still allows a wide variety of moods, which can be either aggressive or playful. A cat will normally enjoy some playful interaction, however it can change its mind swiftly and decide it’s had enough. But as a cat owner you already know that, and are just learning to go with the flow!
