Cats are one of the cutest pets. A ground rule is to treat the cats with love, patience and kindness. Don’t hit her, otherwise your cat will never come near to you, and will be afraid of you. A better thing is that you can use a good discipline tool of a spray bottle filled with water.

You should catch the cat in the act of scratching the sofa or jumping on the sink and sprits the culprit with the gentle spray of water, this way the cat will relate the behavior with the unpleasant experience of water, but will not relate you with the unpleasant experience. You should make sure for offering the cat an acceptable outlet for the behavior, and also praise her when the cat does the right thing.

If a cat has a lapse in memorizing the ground rules or, if it stops using the litter box, then do not try to punish it. The cat may be feeling out of balance, and these signs should alert you that the cat may be unwell or that something is missing. If a cat stops using the litter box, then you may be getting the bladder infection.

Cats can associate their pain with things, and that’s why they use to avoid those things, like they can associate the litter pan with the pain that they feel upon urinating, so they avoid using the litter, or the cat may not like the brand of litter you have started using, or the cat may not feel comfortable using the box where it is kept. If there is no medical problem, then the vet may recommend an animal behavior specialist
