You might check with animal control to see if they are trying to trap one. Perhaps someone in the area got bit and they're looking for rabies? amanda and kipling

With dogs anyway, its important to do initial training individually. Plus it helps if you can use a different marker for each animal. There are clickers out there that are adjustable for multi-animal households, or you can use say a clicker for one, a whistle for another and a marker word such...

Here is a great link to cat/dog households with tips on introductions. It was written specifically for pit bulls, but its appropriate for any dog. Proper introductions are important for good co-habitation. http://www.pbrc.net/training_cat_dog.html plus you can see my boy Kipling with his buddies...

Thanks Sarah, I have tried this but he is very persistant, plus as soon as I start putting the bowl down, he meows again so unless I can get the bowl back up in time, he gets rewarded for meowing. Maybe, I'll add the clicker to this to see if he gets the idea better. I have lots of dog...

I would never starve my cat or use any aversive training methods. I didn't even take that as a real suggestion. Nor would I rehome him. I make a lifetime commitment to all my animals. I don't know what it is about his voice that gets to me, I've never had another cat that bothered me in that...

Ok, stange question: is there any way to train a cat not to meow for food? The only time Kipling ever talks to me is when he wants food which I know is normal, but for some reason, his voice just grates on my nerves, especially first thing in the morning. Due to his weight, he is kept on a...

Hello everyone! I was here a couple years ago, and wanted to stop back by for a while. I'm Amanda and I am owned by a neutered male domestic shorthair, Kipling, who is about 11 years old. We also share our home with three wonderful pups who are Kiplings best buds. Samantha is an 8yo S/F pitador...
