Training Pet Cats


Training is beneficial to pets as it provides mental stimulation, preventing boredom and behavioral issues. There is a notion that it is impossible to train pet cats, but this is not the case. While cats are strong-willed animals, they are highly trainable. Pet owners can teach their cats foundation behaviors, husbandry behaviors, and fun tricks. One of the tools pet owners use in cat training is a clicker. Clicker training is making use of a distinct sound after the display of good behavior and immediately rewarding the pet for it. Cat training becomes effective with positive reinforcement, rewarding the pet when it displays a desirable behavior. Getting a reward for showing good behavior increases a cat's self-confidence and creativity. Training is beneficial in having a smooth coexistence and forge a stronger bond between the owner and pet. Consistency is the key to training as cats learn from repetition.
