How to train a cat

[sumbirdy]

Our young daughter had adopted a stray cat. To my distress, he began to use the back of our new sofa as a scratching post. "Don't worry," my husband reassured me. "I'll have him trained in no time."

I watched for several days as my husband patiently "trained" our new pet. Whenever the cat scratched, my husband deposited him outdoors to teach him a lesson.

The cat learned quickly. For the next 16 years, whenever he wanted to go outside, he scratched the back of the sofa.

It really happy to know that you trained your cat in no time. Training a cat is really a Herculean task. Your hubby acheived it...

I actually didn't write this (sorry I should have posted that) but I thought it was really funny.

I laughed and laughed over your story. Only another cat lover could actually "laugh" about it.

Would you like to see my wing back chairs? If all else fails, and they don't get my attention - this is a sure fire way to get my IMMEDIATE attention.
My chairs now look as though I never give them ANY attention.

I have trained JJJ3 to MEEEEEOOOOOOW at the mere hint of the word Whiskas Temptations.
Even when I spell it he comes running and it hardly took any time at all.
What a shame we cant get on Stupid Pet Tricks.
