Try calling your cat over to you with a treat and petting them while they eat it. The fastest way to a cat’s heart is through their stomach. Give them plenty of yummy treats and they’ll love you in no time.
Don’t expect your cat to want to go on long walks like a dog. Cats are generally not fond of exploring new areas without taking their time.
Younger cats are much easier to train using this technique since they don’t have behaviors ingrained in them yet.
If your cat is older than 5 months, you can still get them spayed or neutered.
You can even leave out a cardboard box with a blanket inside of it for your cat, as long as the box doesn’t get wet.
Use an automatic feeder or water dish if you are worried you may forget to fill up their dishes.
Cats also love valerian and spider plants.
Check with your city building codes to make sure you can legally build a 6 feet (1. 8 m) fence.
You can find PVC pipes at most hardware stores. You can also place an oscillating piece at the top of your fence, or even small dull spikes to discourage your cat from jumping to the top of your fence. Check with your local hardware store to see what they have in stock.
Cat nets also work to keep out large critters that may be roaming around your yard, like raccoons.
Cat enclosures are also called “catios. ”
