Training my kittenhi, im new to this forum. i havnt as yet got a cat but cant wait till i do. my question is that i want to train my furball to just use 1 of my chairs. i know people say that training is hard but can be done. im getting a kitten so its gonna be young enough to show whats right & whats wrong but being on loads of different sites & reading peoples storys, its making me think that its gona do wot it pleases anyway no matter how much training i put in. so, do i try to banish her completely (which i dont really want) or try to train her with 1 chair. any tips at all & i would be grateful. thanks

 Welcome to Catsey  If you have ever owned a cat before you will have realised that a cat has a mind of its own and it will pick its own spot to sleep. I personally think you are expecting the impossible if you hope to train it to use one chair only  When will you be getting your kitten .... and what breed? |

Think Mags has it about right what she is saying...I have 4 cats, and to a degree I have managed to train them, but as soon as my back is turned, they will do somehting they know they shouldn't!!!   |

im getting my cat next week. yeah, i thought it was gonna be hard. i suppose it all depends on the cat cos they all different. i had a cat when i was little but havnt had 1 since. its not a pedigree cat. just your old fashioned moggie. lol. i just wanted feed back to see if i was being unrealistic. i'll do my best with her but whatever happens is up to her, i guess. thanks everyone xx |

yeah, i cant wait. i ve wanted a cat forever but i think the times right. my 2 children are 13 & 11 so they can help with looking after her. i think their at a nice age. ive just moved into lovely big house with loads of room so all we need is the kitten. no, we havnt picked a name we keep looking online so we'll have 1 by the time she gets here. & yes, i'll be posting pics of her. cant wait 2 show her off. xx |

Hi ands welcome. I agree, the cat will sleep wherever he/she decides to; it is unrealistic to hope to restrict her to one chair, How exciting, a new kitten, look forward to the pics! |
