You're an ass, but to answer your question, animals usually don't respond well to negative reinforcement. They do respond, but it isn't necessary for training.
Cats will be cats; by and large they aren't trainable, but mine knows quite a few commands, including, but not limited to "no, roll over : ), outside, and sit." I trained her with treats and whistling.
How did you manage to train your cat to perform such tricks? I've had much success in dog training , however it seems cats are wired differently. A dog responds to treats and doesn't take long to achieve an understanding of performance and reward. A cat will continue to take and take without any notion of return. A self centered creature that if unsatisfied, will act out in sometimes aggressive fashion. Cats should remain among nature, not domesticated for human needs. I've heard some refer to their cat as a beloved child. That's a bit off the deep end but who am I to decide. A Persian cat owner is one that is viewed with several physiological hurdles that can't be negotiated no matter, even with their greatest effort will continuously come up short. Most often an emotional shortcoming instilled in them from past rejections, unable and unwilling to cope, their mediocre being. This individual will project all upon this cat only widening the void, not filling and ultimately overcoming. Beware of these people.
Is it normal that I want to beat rude cats?
