If a person wants to have peace and quiet in his home, he must definitely raise his cat.

Many people are mistaken in thinking that a cat does not need to be trained, which means that it can be ignored altogether, but you cannot treat an animal this way.

If the owner does not monitor his cat, then in the future it will become uncontrollable and confident in its permissiveness.

If a person does not forbid his cat anything, then, of course, it will misbehave, and the owner will have to get used to the torn wallpaper, objects scattered around the apartment, and also to the fact that the cat completely ignores his comments.

Of course, when a person sees the chaos that a cat leaves behind, the first thing he wants to do is, of course, scold his pet by throwing his slippers at her. But, perhaps, someone will be surprised, however, it is impossible to punish a cat for such behavior.

The thing is that the cat will not understand what it did to cause such a reaction in the owner. The animal will think that the person is treating it aggressively. Of course, it will respond in kind. It is after such a situation that puddles and a torn sofa appear in the house.

Eventually, the cat will get used to the fact that its human is behaving inappropriately, it will lose all trust in him and will never make contact. The cat will think that the owner can lose his temper at any moment, and the pet will constantly prepare for this. It will become nervous and irritable.

Of course, if a cat is misbehaving, you need to react to it, but it is important to understand how to communicate with a cat correctly. To stop the animal, you need to speak to it in a clear and firm voice. At the same time, you do not need to throw any objects at the cat, trying to drive it away from the scene.

That is why people who understand that a cat needs training, take care of it from the very first day it appears in the house. This allows people not to encounter any manifestations of the pet's "harmful" character.

First, you should train the kitten to use the litter box, and you need to do this as early as possible so that the animal understands where it needs to relieve itself, and then there will be no problems with this in the future.

When a cat uses the litter box as intended, of course, the owner must let her know that she is doing everything right, it is enough to just praise the cat and give her a little affection. In fact, cats love praise very much, so they will behave well if all their actions are reinforced by the owner's love, and not by his screams and hysterics.

But to prevent the cat from damaging the furniture, of course, you will have to buy it a scratching post, you can also make it yourself. To make the cat interested in a new item in the house, you can sprinkle some catnip in it or show the pet what it should do with the scratching post: to do this, you just need to lean the animal's paws against it.
