As we know, a cat punished for bad behavior may start to behave even worse.

This means that the owner made a mistake in raising the cat. We tell you how to scold a cat so that it does not get offended and does not start to take revenge.

How to scold a cat so that it understands

Firstly, you can only punish a cat if you caught it at the scene of the “crime”.

Just a couple of hours after the misbehavior, the cat simply won’t understand why it is being punished.

Secondly, under no circumstances should you yell at the cat or use physical force.

Stress will only make your cat's behavior worse. It's enough to simply tell your pet "no" in a stern voice.

Thirdly, it is important to teach the cat the correct behavior. For example, if the cat is scratching the wallpaper, tell it sternly but calmly "no" and take it to the scratching post.
