Cats can be very finicky at times. When you are trying to change
bad behaviors, this can be hard. Cats will not always do what
you want them to. When you are trying to change a bad behavior
you need to introduce one good behavior. Redirect them into a
behavior that is more acceptable for the both of you. Make sure
that you reward your cat for any good behaviors that they may
show. Use treats, praise, cuddling, hugs, and games.
When you spot, you cat doing something undesirable you should
redirect them to something else. For instance, if you catch them
scratching at the couch you should get them a scratching

bad behaviors. The
discipline can be used to help them realize that these bad
behaviors are not going to be accepted. On another note if you
have gone away and you come home to find your trash can tipped
over. You can not punish them for this. One, they will not
remember doing this; secondly, they will not know why they are
being punished.
Here are a few things to try if you want to keep your cat from
jumping on your counter tops. You can use things such as double
sided sticky tape, aluminum foil, plastic wrap. The double sided
sticky tape is to be put wherever you don't want your cat. If
the cat goes near it and

puts one of their paws on it, they will
stick to it. As we all know cats do not like having sticky
things on their paws. This goes along with the plastic wrap, it
has the same effect. The aluminum foil can be used like a
mirror. This will give off a reflection of the cat. Typically
cats do not like reflection they believe they see another cat.
Or even at the most extreme you can put an electric mat on the
counter; most of the time this can be purchased at a pet store.
This mat will give off slight shocks to keep the cat from the
counter.
There are some things that you can buy at local pet stores, to
keep your cat

from biting on plants, and electronic wires. You
can get some bitter tasting and bitter smelling things to put on
the plants and wires. You have to be careful what you put on
these items. You can look on the back of the product to tell if
it will harm your plants. You should also monitor how much you
put on these. Your cats need toys to play with; they need to
keep themselves occupied. You can also take the time and grow
them their own plant or grass. Just be careful and find out what
type of plants that can be harmful to your cat. One more idea to
keep your cat from getting into your plants is to get plant
hangers and keep

your plants out of the cats reach.
Just a few reminders that you love your cat and you need to be
patient. All cats have at least one bad habit, there is always
some way of dealing with this. When you want your cat to behave
just treat it fairly. They need time to learn new things, just
like you would. They also need time to break bad habits. Don't
forget they are not trying to make you mad they just want love
and positive attention.
