training your cat has more important
benefits than merely teaching parlor
tricks. It encourages our cats to
use their considerable intelligence
and is a fun way to spend quality time
together. It provides a more
interesting life for your cat, and
improves communication. Bad habits
frequently drift away replaced by the
rewarded behaviors. Problems that
remain can be addressed with an arsenal
of information based on the science of
Operant Conditioning.
Reebok, the
cat who NEVER carried anything in
his mouth, not only learned how
to retrieve but also learned to
retrieve over a jump. As a
side benefit, he has stopped
hiding under the bed all day and
comes out even if dogs are
watching.

Cat Training E-mail List on
the Web
Wendy started the
e-mail list, "Cat-Clicker" in
1998. Now with an international
list of over 1000 members, they are
exploring the benefits of training house
cats. Just like birds, if you spend
quality time training your cat to do
parlor tricks, bad behavior often drifts
away. You also learn lots of
positive methods of solving problems like
walking the kitchen counters and clawing
the furniture.
