How to keep cats off the couch?

Are you having troubles keeping cats of the couch, or anywhere else you don't want them to go?

Well there are lots of easy solutions.

One of the easiest ways is to use a product called SCAT MAT





SCAT MAT emits a noise whenever is senses your cat has jumped on the couch or countertop.

Most people notice is only takes a few times for your cat to be scared by the SCAT MAT and it will not go near the couch again.

Is my cat's behavior normal?

Most owners can tell you what abnormal behavior their cat has; not using the litter box, aggression, etc.

Most people struggle to tell me what normal cat behavior is. Sometimes we become too focused on abnormal cat behavior we fail to realize what is normal?

Things like cats taking naps all day and all night are normal.

Cats eating small meals is normal. Cats usually eat 10-20 grams per sitting, about the same size of a mouse!

Most cats do cover their feces in the litter box, but some don't. This isn't abnormal, some cats just never learned to cover their feces.

For a better discussion of normal versus abnormal cat behavior check out this cat book.

Thanks,

Luke

Where is Your Cat Litter Box

When people try and tell me about why their cat is having behavior problems and not using the litter box, do you know what the first question I ask them is?

Where is your litter box!

This might seem overly simple to some of you but for many people the concept is lost.

They will put their litter boxes next to loud washing machines or driers and wonder why their cat is not using the litter box.

Another not so common problem is someone in the house simply closed the door to the room that contains the litter box. This of course prevents the cat from using the litter box.

For most people if I can't help them I recommend this book on cats: Cat Behavior Problems.

It is a great read and comes with a 60 day money back guarantee if the people I recommend it to don't like it.

I look forward to your comments.

Thanks,

Luke

Stopping Bad Cat Behavior In Its Tracks

Correcting bad cat behavior is bad enough, but when you are starting to try and correct it after several months it can be even harder.

Many people email me asking me about cat behavior and they usually state that a certain behavior has been going on for a couple of months.

One thing to be aware of is that conditioning takes time. It took time for your cat to become conditioned to bad cat behavior, and it will take time to condition him for good cat behavior.

This concept is expanded on further by Dr. Chris in his book Solutions to Cat Behavior Problems.

People I email are often disappointed when they find out how much hard work is ahead of them.

The main thing when conditioning animals or people to how you want them to behave is consistency.

Consistency cannot be stressed enough when it come to trying to change bad cat behaviour.

So if you are trying to change your cat's behaviour, do it early and consistently.

Thanks for reading my blog!
