Talking about cat's behaviors, I am blessed that both Kusky and Kurimu are well behave kitty. Especially Kusky, he will sit quietly at a side to wait for his dinner to be prepared. He never show any interest in human food. He is such a well behave boy. While for Kurimu, he does not create big trouble to us as well. He only likes to take a sniff at our food, trying to find out what we are eating. Most of the time he will just walked away without tasting. One major issue that Kurimu always create is: he likes to meow loudly and wake us up if he wakes up much earlier than anyone of us!
Going back to the topic about training cats, cats are not dogs. The training techniques that work well with our canine friends are not especially effective with our feline psyche. Cats work best when rewarded with treats, so discover a food that your cat responds to as a reward. It may be a cat treat, a sliver of cooked meat or a tiny taste of chicken baby food. Of course, do not ruin their properly balanced diet. Once your cat performs the task requested, reward it with both a treat and a praise.
Your should never hit your cat as punishment, but there are other forms of discipline that are effective. A spritz of water from a spray bottle or water pistol will often discourage unwanted behaviors. The key is to not let the cat realize the spray come from you. In closer quarters, blowing in the cat's face can be an effective deterrent. The puff strength, number and duration to best fit the cat and the behavior. Loud clapping, rattling cans, imitating a cat's hiss or a blast from an air horn are also effective deterrents with some felines.
