I cannot imagine hitting a animal

also helped. I guess you are old school.
If you think hitting is
effective then why does your cat
continue to misbehave? Corporal
punishment does not work. You
prove it every you hit your pets,
kids....
Thank you.


I always wonder why people think hitting a child or pet works. I see
it all the time and they get the same result out of both....fear.

Yep. No better way to cultivate mistrust.

Very true. Like the old saying, "if you can dish it out but
you can't take it you need to hand in your spoon."

I don't know if this will help, but for our kittens, we leave them in
the bathroom when we are away. They have fresh litter, water, food,
and toys there and we know where they won't be in our house! ;-)
