Cat Training

Speak to Me!

Even if your cat doesn't know the words, the meaning is clear. Your tone of voice and body language convey much to your pet.

Eve Adamson

So the next time you aren't sure whether you should verbally express yourself in the presence of your cat, speak up! "I'm constantly encouraging my clients to talk to their cats more," Gamble says. "Use your voice to deliver affection. It's like a vocal stroking, and that means a lot to your cat." Use your voice for training, bonding and basic interspecies communication.

Your cat is listening.

This was a good article, but I don't quite agree with it. My cats understand "No" when I don't want them to do something or when I don't want them in a particular area. They also understand or at least perk up and look when I ask them if they are hungry. They seem to respond to their names.

My cat understands so much of what I say. She doesn't always do what I want, but that's not because she doesn't know. She's just being a cat!
