My cat is a bit, out there

Sweet kitty!

thanks, i got him a little over a week ago and hes only 5 months old

I was petting my dog and I look over to see him smiling

some do that, mine smiles when shes in trouble

anyone with kittens, how do i get my kitten to behave? i looked up online but there were no definitive answers, and he keeps trying to get food even when hes no supposed to

^ Hiding from the thunder

Awwh

Big baby

She is 😆

Thats a nice dog. What breed?

She's a Yellow Lab and German Shepherd mix

Sunbeams, a cats natural weakness

so cute

How do I discipline my kitten? The little fucker tried to get into his treats after he knocked them down

I looked it up and hitting, spraying, shaking, pretty much anything is a no no and I'm lost

He's not a bad kitten he just doesnt know what to do, I've only had him a week and a half and I dont want to make him feel unwanted

Use a spray bottle of water on fine stream. Or a squirt gun. Problem solved 👍

I flick mine on the ears hard. No damage, but they don't like it.

Spray bottle with water is effective. Chasing kitten around and soaking them is also effective for repeat offenses back to back. Just remember to offer affection when they come up to apologize. Animals don't, typically, hold grudges and are confused when we humans do.

The spray bottle didn't work for me because nothing teaches a kitten a lesson like ruining a motherboard.

Lol

Proper aiming technique seems to be the issue there. Operator error 😂

I was thinking the same lol

Never point the muzzle at something you dont want sprayed

I was sort of surrounded by electronics at the time.

But an ear flick works fine.

Well thank you, I'll try that.

Imposing your size on the kitten is also effective in establishing that you are to be listened to. Cats attempt to make themselves seem larger to warn off undesirable behavior

He drives me crazy sometimes

Dogs are what we wish we were. Cats are what we actually are

As in, cats are assholes 😂

My dog is functionally retarded. My cats are defective.

My dog is 175# thinking hes a cat. My cats are 6# of thinking they are the dog

I've found that "stupid" or "retarded" dogs are usually playing dumb so you'll stop or just give in
