Three Methods to Reduce Cats' Damage to the Home
Chinchilla Cat
1. Cats hate being startled. Water sprays, loud clapping, or other sudden noises, such as the sound of a thick book hitting the floor, can be used. You can use these sounds to stop your cat from doing things you don't want. However, you must create the noise at the same time the cat is "misbehaving," so they associate the unpleasant noise with the action they are doing.
2. When a cat makes a mistake, push the cat's face with your palm, then loudly and firmly say "No". The tone of this voice should be completely different from the tone you use when petting or playing with them.
3. Actually, the most important principle is the so-called "baby principle." Cats, like babies, have little behavioral control. When you raise a cat, you can imagine there is a baby crawling all over the place who cannot control themselves, then put all dangerous items out of their reach. Put fragile things in cabinets, place food where they cannot reach, and replace trash cans with foot-pedal hospital-style lids.
In short, if you can teach your cat with the right methods and have the proper attitude towards their behavior, they will not bring trouble to your home. Instead, they will become your best companion in both joyful and sad times!
