Techniques for training pet cats to carry objects

Shandong Lion Cat

  (1)、 The training should start at 2 to 3 months of age, as cats are more receptive to training at this time and it lays the foundation for further training.

  (2)、 Master the right timing. The best time to train cats is before feeding, because hungry cats are willing to approach people and are more obedient. Food is an incentive for cats, making training easier.

  (3)、 Combine various stimuli organically. Combine various stimuli appropriately, neither being too harsh nor too lenient, but applying firmness and gentleness combined, strictness and leniency together.

  (4)、 The attitude should be kind, patient, and meticulous. Cats have stubborn personalities and strong self-esteem, and do not like to be controlled, especially when unhappy. They refuse to comply. Therefore, the attitude toward cats should be gentle, like playing with the cat, paying attention to building a bond. Even if the cat makes a mistake, do not scold or punish excessively to avoid causing aversion to training.

  (5)、 Proceed step by step without rushing. The principle of cat training is to proceed from simple to complex, tailored to the cat and treating individuals differently. Only teach one action at a time; do not conduct multiple trainings simultaneously. If the cat consistently fails, it will lose confidence and develop aversion, making future training difficult. Each training session should not last more than 10 minutes, but training can be done multiple times a day.

  (6)、 The training environment should be quiet. Avoid multiple people training at the same time to prevent distracting the cat. Do not make loud noises during training because cats are very sensitive to loud sounds and may hide instead of cooperating. The training environment should be quiet, without onlookers, and do not suddenly grab the cat to ensure smooth training. (Source:PetsZone)
