How to Train Cats Not to Jump on the Bed
Tabby Cat
Active and lively cats causing mischief at home is very common. Most cats like to crawl into their owner's quilt to sleep. For this behavior, owners should immediately stop it and strictly train cats to develop the good habit of sleeping alone. So how should we train and correct the behavior of cats jumping on the bed?
First, to prevent cats from jumping on the owner's bed, owners should prepare a warm and comfortable cat nest for the cat. When cats can rest comfortably in their own nest, it will also reduce their desire to jump on the owner's bed.
Second, when the cat jumps on the bed, the owner should properly scold the cat, letting the cat know that jumping on the bed is wrong behavior. Or pat the cat's rump to drive it off the bed. After repeating this many times, the cat will no longer jump on the bed.
Finally, if the cat has already developed the habit of sleeping with the owner, it is not easy to change this behavior in a short time. Owners should adopt a more severe method, such as a spray bottle. When the cat jumps on the bed, the owner can spray water on it. After multiple lessons, the bed will become a thing the cat dislikes, naturally stopping it from jumping on the bed.
Making the cat develop a negative conditioned reflex to the bed is the best way to completely prevent cats from jumping on the bed. Cats not sleeping on the bed also ensures the owner's health and saves the owner the trouble of cleaning the bedding. (Source:PetsZone)
