Animal Behavior College’s Cat Training School Offers Locations All Across the U.S. and Canada!
Are you wondering how to train a cat? Is there such a thing as a cat training course? Can you train a cat? You sure can! You can even clicker train a cat. Often when people consider (or research) “how to train your cat”, they focus on trick training. But consider for a moment all the practical and life saving perks of well trained cats. Thousands of pet owners struggle with their new feline friends’ problem behaviors like scratching the furniture, hissing, spraying, biting and more. Unfortunately, when these negative behaviors are not addressed, frustrated owners may end up surrendering their cats to shelters (or worse). Think of the impact you can have on the lives of cats by helping owners learn how to eliminate these problem behaviors through training.
Similar to dogs, cats can be trained with simple cat training commands, positive reinforcement and, if you choose, a clicker. Because felines are known for their independence, people assume cats are hard to train, but positive training methods like rewarding good behavior produce solid results.
