Using spray bottles as a tool for negative reinforcement or discipline is discussed in this free video. Expert: Adrienne Mulligan Bio: Dr. Adrienne Mulligan graduated from veterinary school…
Don’t use the spray bottle as a discipline because your just making the cat
scared of you and not the place or thing they are doing so don’t use the
spray bottle
@magicarpokemon Hahaha you train your cat by telling her that she is a GOOD
cat after doing something wrong? Jesus Christ, don’t you know anything
about animal conditioning and the foundation of cause and effect? Telling
your cat that she is a good cat and treating her after she does something
wrong will lead your cat into thinking that behavior is a positive one. You
don’t have to spray her with water but you can’t be nice if you want to
create any positive and lasting habits. Pet training 101.
Don’t you think it’s so much better if the obedience of your cat is based
on trust, rather than avoidance of a punishment? Pffft, call yourself an
expert…
So what do you do when the cat does the behavior and you aren’t there to
punish it? Doesn’t the cat just learn not to do it when you are around?
Good advice when you are at home and expecting the cat to act badly, or
else walking around all day with a spray bottle.
this is not the right way because water does not work for all cats If you
are training your cat remember these FOUR things: -CATS CAN NOT BE
CORRUPTED -CATS HARDLY FORGIVE -YOU MUST BE VERY LOUD AND STRICT OTHERWISE
CAT MAY IGNORE YOU -USE SHORT WORDS FOR TRAINING
my two black n whites do this too! its horrible! cant leave any meat scraps
in the bin at all. I was told that giving them human food develops their
taste for scraps. I am guilty of this…lol. they get treats all the time.
I just put the garbage in teh closet and it solved teh problem..lol
thats cruel yeh it might train the cat but its mean there are other wats to
train a cat other than being mean by spraying them with water you use that
treatment on wild animals not your household pets.
actually, i want i do is, just sternly say NO, without yelling it or being
nice while saying it. Then if that doesn’t work tap them on the nose, not
too hard, but not too soft. It makes them flinch and will stop them a
little bit.
Yep I understand however there aren’t any places to hide that she wouldn’t
see me. I have a very small apartment. In the end it was just to
distressing for me to see her just sit there and “take it”. What I am doing
now is I pick her up, hold her and talk to her gently and deposit her down
on the floor or in another room. Some times she goes back, but just as many
times, she will stay where i put her. In the end, its less stressful for me
without the constant scolding and water attacks.
How do I stop my cats (i have 2) from being bin scabs!? They’re indoor
cats, we feed them regularly, we have a lid on the bin, we’ve tried
spraying them, smack on the bum, locking them in the laundry all night,
yelling at them, and they still drag food scraps and rubbish out and chew
it up. They have toys, scratching post, one of those giant cat play
towers… my partner is ready to give up on them completely – HELP!
So you’re saying they’re pretty bad at being sociopaths, unlike dogs and
humans, who are really good at pretending that their feelings and emotions
add up to more than a simple biological desire to survive, procreate, and
horde as much survival benefitting resources to themselves as possible.
This isn’t the way you should do this. If you do this then the cat will
begin to stop trusting you and get scared. This WILL make it to where it
will behave but do you want it to be happy to? The correct way to do this
is to make a sharp hiss sound for, “No”. Use their language or they will
get confused. If they do something really bad other than biting like going
to the bathroom on the rug, you pick him/her up by the scruff of the neck
(gently) and growl.
The spay bottle works for my cats, but sometimes a gentle swat on their
behind works. If you have a rolled up news paper, that works. It doesn’t
hurt so much as it just gives a shock factor. If your cats are aggressive
towards you, you can try the bottle, a swat, or roll them over on their
backs and hold them down while yelling “NO!”
Right now, i’m clapping at her and saying sternly, “Get down!” I plan to
use this for as long as it works, (my voice isn’t the sternest) My mother
on the other hand just pops the cat when she does something wrong (her
voice is very stern) If I were to get creative about it though, I’d
probably shoot her with a nerf gun or something…or slingshot some paper
at her if I get tired of talking.
what happens if yoyu have a stubborn cat the won’t respond to water or loud
noises and never really learns because none of these methods really affect
her??
Sorry to say, spray bottle didn’t work for my cat. He started enjoying the
nice cool shower from the spray as he continued whatever bullshit he was
doing.
and the fact that you actually went into my channel and followed my
comments up into over here,and replied,just means you Are 12 years old,And
that you Are Homosexual,which is why you are butthurt,and which is why you
replied. which means your life sux,cuz your a 12yo Homo :)))))
If my cat is doing something she is not suppose to do. I pick her up, pet
her and tell her she is a good cat, and put her down on the couch, or
someplace she likes. It is very effective as when she goes to do something
wrong, and I know it, if I go to pick her up, she does not do it. I would
like to train you with a spray bottle lady.
I don’t see how its harmful in the least, let alone abusive. Its not
hurting them at all. If that is abusive then spraying them with a water
bottle us absolutely abusive. In the wild dominance is based upon another
animals willingness to submit. In order to pick out a puppy you’re supposed
to roll it on its back, if its submissive, that means it sees you as the
alpha, if it deities and fights that means it may be an aggressive adult.
The same thing with cats. Its just putting them in their place

i hiss at my cat that works pretty well

If your cat likes water or doesnt respond when you spray to it, put
freezer-cold water or some ice in them. It works with every cat.
