Feline Querries and Responses on Cat Training and More
Q: Can you train cats?
A: Yes, cat training is not as challenging as some the uninitiated predict it is. Kitties are not as responsive to training as Champ or Rover are but they can be trained. Tasty rewards offered as positive reinforcement is most likely the primary way to train a cat.
Q: Why and how do kittens make a purring sound?
A: Grown kitties purr because they are happy and contented and to play on the emotions of humans — Who can ignore a purring kitty? Kittens purr in response to their mother cat’s purr to assist in bonding them. It is generally thought that the purring is a vibration of the voicebox as air is pushed though it. It is also believed that purring is a voluntary action.
Q: What makes certain people are allergic to cats?
A: Cat allergies are caused by the proteins in cat dander generated from the cat’s saliva. The dander dries and becomes airborne. People with cat allergies demonstrate a reaction because their immune system is beginning to attack the alien protein and creates histamines.
Q: How do you curtail bad cat behavior like scratching?
A: The best way to stop bad cat behavior is the same way the mother cat controls an errant kitten. This is by scuffing the cat. You firmly but gently grasp the cat by the scruff of the neck and hold it down until it calms down. You must do this at the time of the unwanted behavior.
Q: How do you litter train a cat?
A: You really shouldn’t need to do any training for a cat to use a litter box, but if your adult cat has started to avoid the litter box you need to determine the cause. The cat may have a urinary tract infection in which case you need to go to the vet. If it is just too dirty you need to keep it cleaner. If you have changed litter you may have to change back or sprinkle a little catnip in the litter to attract the cat to the new litter.
Q: How do you keep cats off the kitchen table?
A: This is one of the most asked about cat behavior issues and can be a tough one. Cats like high places and they can find food or food aromas on tables and counters. It is best to keep the counters clean and to use something like foil or double sided tape to keep cats off the tables.
