Cats are often temperamental and independent. However, there is a way to educate your cat without trauma and without it taking forever. 

Of course, patience is indispensable. However, cats develop very quickly. Likewise, they tend to learn quickly. So, with some tricks you can teach him good behavior.

Often the cat may be behaving badly due to stress or fear. Equally, for adapting to a new location. Another possibility, quite natural, concerns young age.

There are solutions for all these occasions. Also, for the countless negative behaviors that can arise in them. Whether in relation to hygiene and use of the litter box or attacking the furniture, everything is possible.

For solutions to your cat's behavior, read on. Below you will find several effective tips for caring for your kitten while also disciplining her. Thus, coexistence can be harmonious and fun.

The best way to educate a feline is, without a doubt, based on patience, care and a lot of affection. That doesn't mean, however, that you shouldn't be firm. This is essential for your cat to understand that you are not joking and that the behavior is not welcome.

However, never resort to violence. This tends to drive the cat away from you. Gaining a cat's trust is a very important step in educating him. And, also, for the well-being of your relationship, of course.

There are some precautions that are essential to teach your cat. His discipline requires attention at certain points. For example, you must demonstrate to him when something is not cool. For this, do not use your normal tone of voice. Make it tougher.

Also, remember to always say “no” when you catch him doing any of these unwanted actions. Here, a very important caveat: Your cat will only learn if the scolding occurs at the time of the negative act.

That is, there is no point in scolding him after the act. He won't know what you're referring to. Likewise, you won't know what not to do. Therefore, if your cat only gets ready when you are away, this could be an obstacle.

In that case, simulate a period out. For example, stay in a room for a while, with the door closed. So surprise your feline when he's making that slide. As you do so, use “no” in a firm tone. If necessary, push it gently. With that, he understands that that behavior is wrong. 

Here, you should see if your home has adaptations for your feline. After all, you must bear in mind that the cat depends on some structures for it to adapt. For example, if he has problems with the litter box and does his business outside of it, around the house, analyze:

All this impacts on the use of the litter box. Also, remember to repeatedly show him where the litter box is. For example, when adopting him, repeat this in the first few days, when waking up and after each feline meal.

Likewise, if he begins to demonstrate this behavior after adulthood, review the conditions above. Also, study the possibility of changing the location of the litter box.

Finally, we separate 05 special tricks that will help in the task of educating your cat. They are simple, but in practice they make all the difference. So, check out what they are and how to discipline your feline!

Cats, like dogs, also respond to commands. Although they take longer to adopt them, they learn them. Just a little insistence and, of course, patience. They involve several commands.

For example, teach him to fetch toys. Or to sit down, lie down or wave a paw (Hi-five!). All these commands ask for the aid of a stimulus, such as a snack. However, after learning, the treat is no longer necessary.

Your cat automatically responds to commands. To teach it, just repeat movements. Sit him down, lay him down or place his paw on your hand, for example. Afterwards, praise him and give him a treat. Repeat this to exhaustion!

If your cat bites, it's probably your fault. Play in the puppy stage with bites tends to be repeated in adulthood. However, with more strength and greater dangers. Therefore, do not support this type of behavior from an early age.

Pull your hand away and say "no" firmly whenever this occurs. If necessary, give the cat a gentle push or tap its nose or forehead with your fingertips. This will demonstrate to him the negativity of behavior.

Does your cat climb on things, try to get your food and is the terror of your decorations? Then teach him not to climb on things. For this, use a spray with water. Every time you catch him climbing where he shouldn't, splash some water on the feline's face.

Use the spray trick instead of resorting to violence. Other tricks involve talking to the cat (“No” commands) or a bottle of grain. This second case is the same as the use of water spray, however it is frightening because of the noise.
