Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! Cats can be trained using positive reinforcement like treats, praise, or play. They may not behave like dogs, but they can learn commands, routines, and good habits when training is consistent and rewarding.
The best method is reward-based training. When your cat does something right, immediately reward them with a treat or affection. Avoid punishment—it can make cats fearful and slow down learning.
Training time varies by cat and behavior. Simple tasks (like using a scratching post) can take a few days, while commands or leash training may take weeks. Short, daily sessions (5–10 minutes) work best.
Older cats can absolutely be trained! While kittens may learn faster, adult and senior cats can still learn new behaviors with patience and consistency.
