			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Target training and clicker training are some of the more effective techniques used in <a target="_blank" href="http://www.catsandtheirowners.com/complete-cat-training-guide-review/">training cats</a>.</p>
<p> <strong>Target training</strong><br /> This is where you attract your cat&#8217;s attention and then obtain desired behaviors through the use of a designated tool such as a training wand.<br /> <strong><br /> Clicker training</strong><br /> This is a form of operant conditioning. A small mechanical noise-maker (the &#8216;clicker&#8217;) is used by the trainer to create a short, distinct noise. The clicker is pressed at the exact moment the cat completes a desired action. For example, during &#8217;sit&#8217;, the clicker is clicked at the very instant that the cat&#8217;s bottom touches the ground. Directly after the click, the cat is fed a small and tasty treat.</p>
<p> As this is repeated over and over again, the cat will start to associate food with the clicking sound and recognize that he can earn treats by performing the actions based on the specific commands.</p>
<p> <strong>A few quick tips for training cats properly<br /></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Remember to be patient. Your cat is an individual, with its own abilities and preferences. Make allowances for his personality, and don&#8217;t lose your temper if it doesn’t go exactly according to schedule.</li>
<li>Implement a schedule for mealtimes. Your cat should not have access to its food all the time during the day to have as it feels like. Enhance the reward-value of food and treats as training aids in order to improve your cat&#8217;s routine.</li>
<li>Train smart. The best time to schedule your cat training session would be just before its meal. Your cat&#8217;s natural desire for food at his regular mealtime will sharpen his focus and increase his desire to obey you.</li>
<li>Take baby steps when <a target="_blank" href="http://www.catsandtheirowners.com/complete-cat-training-guide-review/">training your cat</a>. It&#8217;s best to build up a solid foundation of the basics before attempting to expand his repertoire.</li>
<li>Training lessons should be kept short and exciting and should end positively.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Training cats to &#8217;sit&#8217; on command</strong><br /> &#8216;Sit&#8217; is a great basic command for your cat to know, because it serves as the foundation for a number of other, more advanced tricks and commands for example, &#8217;stay&#8217;, &#8216;beg&#8217;, and &#8216;high five&#8217;.)</p>
<p> The training wand can be made even more effective by dipping the end into some tuna oil for example, which will make it more atttractive to your cat. Once he&#8217;s come over to you, place the wand just over his head, so that it&#8217;s slightly behind the crown of his head.</p>
<p> He will tilt his head back to keep his eyes on it. When he does this, he will naturally sit down. Obviously as your cat sits down you should say the command &#8217;sit&#8217; in a clear tone. As soon as his botttom hits the floor, press the clicker. It is critical that the timing is perefct here.</p>
<p> Directly after clicking, give him a small food treat. Ensure the pieces are small enough for your cat to eat quickly otherwise the reason you gave it will be lost on him.</p>
<p> Repeat this process a few more times, and over the next few weeks, keep doing so until he&#8217;s comfortable with what&#8217;s expected of him. Once he is sitting down on command you can start to phase out clicker training but still give treats now and again. It&#8217;s important to bear in mind that patience and a consistent approach are crucial.<br /> <strong><br /> Where to find more information on training cats</strong><br /> To find out more about training cats, whether for obedience or tricks, and how to get the best results check out our <a target="_blank" href="http://www.catsandtheirowners.com/complete-cat-training-guide-review/">Complete Cat Training Review</a>.</p>
