Getting Started - No physical punishment
No spanking,
yelling, or chasing!
It's just too
risky to spank or, in any way, physically punish your kitten. You
are more likely to have the lesson backfire. A feisty kitten may
become more aggressive. A fearful kitten may decide to avoid you
altogether. Don't jeopardize a close, loving relationship with
your kitten. Do NOT use physical punishment with your kitten.
Instead, provide everything good and nothing bad. If you
see the kitten doing something wrong, ask
yourself, what would be right? Then show your
kitten how to do that!
Physical punishment teaches your
kitten to avoid you and not trust you.
Instead, teach your kitten to express natural
behaviors in acceptable ways and places.
Teach your
kitten how to thrive as a feline in a puzzling human household.
