You want to train your cat to come, sit, and stay. You can also
teach your cat not to scratch at things. When you are teaching
your cat to not scratch, sometimes they seem like they are
pawing at you and they start scratching you. On this certain
behavior you can softly stroke their paw to help retract their
claws. When their claws have been retracted, you can tell them
good kitty in a reassuring voice. They do not realize that this
is a bad thing that they are doing and they are not trying to
hurt you. The reassuring and the praise should not be followed
with food. This will show them that this is one thing that

be expected of them at all times, and it is not a trick. You are
going to have to continually work with them on this for a few
weeks. They are not going to scratch on the first time you do
this. By you telling your cat that they are a good kitty and
paying attention to them is a good thing to do.

your cat gently. Do not rough house with your cat this can show

you should use one of their toys to show its ok to bite, scratch
at their own toys. While you are playing with your cat, if they
scratch you it is not their fault. Accidents happen, do not
discipline them for this action. They think that you are trying
to play, you will not get anywhere but confusing your cat.
Here are some tricks that you cannot teach your cat. If you

should get some
healthy treats to reward them. The reason you should do this
before dinnertime is so they will have a bit more of an edge to
do what you want so they can get their treat. The next thing to
do is put them on a surface that will bring you and your cat eye
to eye. When your cat starts to wander off, call out their name
in a stern voice and tell them to stay. Put your hand up as to
say stop. After your cat does this, you should reinforce it by
giving him a bite of the treat. After the cat is done, you
should allow him/her to get distracted again and then tell them
to stay. You should do this about 4 to

5 minutes per day, with 2
or 3 training sessions.
The next trick that you can try is "come". This should be easy;
you have already taught your cat to stay. He now knows when you
are teaching him something that there is going to be yummy
rewards. You can start trying this when your cat is in another
room, call them by their name, and say come. Make sure to try to
say it in a fun playful voice. That is one big key as well as
when they do come by you. You should always have a treat or
something for them. You asked them to do something, give a
little back. Make this a fun loving game for you and your cat.

Some important things to remember young cats are the easiest to
train. Do not make your training sessions any longer than 5
minutes, per session. This can make the cat become uncooperative
and irritable. Make sure you reward your pet, if they do ask you
may ask. Another thing is to make sure that you always end your
training sessions on a positive note. Hugs and treats are the
best way to show your cat that you care.
