And then there are the just-plain- freaks like ol' Joe there. Yeah, I read that little exchange there. All I can say is you'll fit right in here in NYC. heh heh heh. Tara |

"Tara" wrote in message ... *~*SooZy*~* wrote: "P.D." wrote in message . net... are you brain dead? I said I tried training, I spend a lot of time trying, my cats just don't respond to it. excuse me if you go back to the first posting of soft post it say copy and pasted And in one of the next posts he wrote in the thread, he mentioned having tried training. I'm extremely glad he's decided against having his cats toes cut off, but some of the posts in this thread really seem misplaced and unfair. Tara yes, very true but I had already replied by then! if you check the posts and times you will see that.... It's just some people don't even try to train their cats just find a fast and easy way to stop them, and it makes me cross! if training has been tired and not worked for them ok maybe you need to use another method! |

"Tara" wrote in message ... wrote: In rec.pets.cats.health+behav Tara wrote: This, IMO, is more the equivalent of asking how to go about dealing with a dog who is particularly hard to housebreak. Some dogs housebreak easily, some are incredibly difficult. Just because someone is having a harder time with theirs than you had with yours doesn't make them lazy, nor does it make them unconcerned. Once agian, I was responding to who I quoted to... I read that in other posts and understand that's what you *meant*. What came across was entirely different. Given the context (someone ranting about why would anyone use something as stupid as SoftPaws), your reply *did* appear to be answering that question. As I said, I certainly understand the out of context and out of place rant, but then please understand when people read it *in* context rather than the out of context way you may have intended it. Tara Ok Tara sorry, what I was meaning is people should try training rather than just using soft paws! after reading my post again, I realise the way I had worded it was completely wrong. I have read up about soft paws since and realising the cats can still climb, nail contract etc, so it really doesn't make much difference to them, so maybe they are a good idea... shame about the colours of them tho!
