Cat Training The Meows And The Purrs
A Cat 'meows'. Yes it sounds so good but if
it meows loudly and continuously, then the same sound becomes
irritating. What do you think the reason can be? Is it hungry?
YES and NO
Yes, hungry, it can be, but apart from this there can many other
reasons, why it is 'meowing'. The reason may be anything it may be
because it is just bored, or can be because it has suffering from some
kind of discomfort or has some medical problem.
What should you do it she keeps meowing? Offer her milk...
No! You should not offer her any food when it is incessantly
meowing, as it will think that this as a kind of reward and would keep
meowing... This will increase its bad behavior and would affect the
relationship between you and the cat.
Offer it food, when it stops meowing, this will be registered in its
mind, that if it does not meow unnecessarily, it will be rewarded. You
will need to get your cat to learn when it is appropriate to meow, when
they really need something. You need to see that all the cat needs is
always available to it, as far as possible. This would mean your cat
will do less meowing.
Cats are usually lazy and would not exercise by themselves. They
love to cat nap all day long. You need to set up a playtime and a play
area. Keep Strings, ball, catnip items, or simple home made items that
your cat will love. See that the items kept are without any sharp edges
which might hurt your pet. This will help it get into a good habit of
keeping itself occupied while you are busy with something else.
You should spend sometime in a day and preferable keep it same time
everyday. A good time would be when you return home from work and you
want to relax. It is proved that playing with or just stroking cats
helps one relax and keeps blood pressure under control.
Purring is another characteristic of a cat. Purring signifies that
the cat is content. Follow this with caution as purring does not always
signify that the cat is happy. Cats also purrs if they are ill, sick or
dying. Pay close attention to your cat, when it is purring and check
for any physical signals which might suggest that it is not feeling
well.
If it stops purring, that too signifies that it has some discomfort
maybe it may be sick with a virus or something could be making her feel
sick. These are signals to suggest you that seek the services of a
veterinarian and have your cat examined. Non-purring may also happen
when cats get older or maybe the purring is so soft that you are unable
to hear them it.
As in humans, emotions play a very important part of a behavior in
your cat. Fears, grief, compassion, jealously affect the behavior of
your feline friends too.
* As fear is intimating to us so is it for them, it may have a fear of getting hurt or may be afraid of another animal.
* Cat would exhibit grief, when something tragic happens to it like
loosing its owner, the same way as we do when we loose our near or dear
ones.
* Cats have compassion for other cats.
* Your meowing and purring pet also turns green with jealousy if it has to share its owner, home, toys or food.
It is these emotions, you need to consider, when you are training
your cat. It would be disturbed and might resort to excessive meowing
and refuse to listen to its master. When they show the signs of being
emotional, you need to find what is affecting their behavior.
Are they hurt or are they ill or is it just their bad behavior.
Cats, being emotional, need your attention all the time. You need to
observe, if they are satisfied with the location, they are comfortable
with other pets or other members of the family and you should always be
aware of their actions.
Training a pet is tricky. It is Time and Patience which will help
you through. They are to be treated like our children, teach them good
behavior and ignore their bad attitude.
Reward your cat for being good. You need to give time to your cat to
teach them how to play with toys and other items which you have kept
for their playing. Always feed you cat with healthy food; these will
ensure good medical condition and happy-content behavior.
Get toys which they would practically like to play with. Do not go in for toys which you would like them to play with.
Love them, Hug them and be kind to them, and you would be able to share the most beautiful relationship.
