The IQs of cats and dogs are actually the same, but because cats have not yet been fully domesticated and have their own little thoughts, it is very laborious to train them, especially if you want them to become well-behaved and sensible. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. As long as we teach carefully and patiently and have correct training methods, it’s not a problem. The editor below will introduce to you how to train Maine Coon cats.

Maine Coon Cat

The first step in training a cat is to make it "responsive" to its name. The most effective way is to call the cat's name before eating. As long as it understands that it will get food when its name is called, it will naturally remember the pronunciation of its own name.

Don’t let your cat “recognize life” and train your cat to be a “lover” cat

It is very important to hold it and play with it often. Cats are inherently cautious animals. They usually ignore strangers and sometimes run away. Some people may think that as long as the relationship between a cat and its owner is close, it is satisfying, but if everyone around you recognizes and loves your favorite cat, it is ultimately a happy thing. Cats have diverse personalities, so cats that have been hugged and played with people since they were young will like to be close to people. But don’t let the cat feel bored by holding it all the time, and don’t hold the cat reluctantly.

Sometimes I play with the cat, throw a ball to it, or pet it while teasing it to have skin-to-skin communication. If the owner lives alone or has few family members, he or she can often let friends who like cats come to play at home and let the cat experience interacting with strangers.

To avoid trouble between cats and people around them, pay attention to the following points:

When raising a cat that can go outside, there will be many situations where it will attract the attention of people around you. For cats, wherever they walk seems to be their own territory, so there are cases where they jump over walls and fences and sneak into neighbors' houses to cause trouble for them. Because not everyone likes cats, what seems cute to the owner may turn out to be annoying behavior in the eyes of neighbors. This reality must be understood first.

Because most cats suffer from urinating and defecating in neighbors’ homes, most owners think that they have prepared a special toilet for cats, so cats will not go to the toilet outside. In fact, this is not the case.

If you have a complaint, it is a good idea to apologize immediately and take the initiative to clean up properly. The most important thing is to say "My cat has caused trouble to you, I'm sorry." In order not to cause big trouble and maintain good neighborly relations, everyone must work hard!
