Foreword:
Successfully train cats with Katzenklicker Training for a gentle cat education.
Whether it's just about strengthening the relationship between you and your cat or whether you want to teach your gentle paw tricks and commands, clicker training, or "clickers" for short, is a great way to teach your cat new things and train it to behave in a certain way.
When it comes to clicker training, however, there are a few things you should know in advance and pay attention to. Not only so that the training brings results as quickly as possible, but also so that your cat is not overwhelmed.
We will go into all this and much more in detail in this guide to clicker training, so that no questions should remain unanswered and you can start clicking right away.
1. Prerequisites and Training Accessories
Basically, before you start clicker training, you should make sure that both you and your cat are relaxed and want to clicker.
The room in which you want to do the clicker training is also important. Here you should make sure that you don't leave too many small objects lying around so that they constantly distract your cat while clicking. Unnecessary noise should also be avoided during clicker training, so it is better to turn off the television or the radio, for example.
You should simply try to create as relaxed an atmosphere as possible, and then you can start clicker training at what feels like the right moment when both you and your cat appear relaxed and motivated.
You really don't need a lot of equipment and accessories for clicker training, apart from the clicker itself and of course the absolutely necessary treats. Simple clickers can be bought in every pet shop and usually come with a loop so that you can simply hang them around your neck.
In theory, however, other objects can also be used, provided they emit a clearly audible but short acoustic signal. Examples of this are, for example, whistles or a bell. However, you should make sure that the noise is new and unusual to your cat.
The noise shouldn't be a constant feature of the environment, as the goal of clicker training is, of course, to condition your cat to the specific acoustic signal from your clicker. If you have the right clicker ready and enough treats ready, the clicker training can begin.
2. Strengthen relationship
As we briefly mentioned in the introduction to this clicker training guide, clicker training is used to try to achieve various goals, such as training or reinforcing a certain behavior in the cat, or training it to stop unwanted behavior.
In addition, clicker training also has many other positive aspects, such as strengthening the relationship between you and your cat. A good relationship between pet and human, and this is especially true for cats, is not always given and is not a matter of course. Many cats are naturally very calm, tame, trusting and easily build trust in their owners.
Other cats, on the other hand, are grumpier, hardly trust their owners and often appear unrelaxed, or simply do not necessarily contribute to a relaxed relationship between animal and human. So you can't generalize here.
