It is important that you train your cat properly because they are unlike most animals. Dogs and cats are very different and training them is different as well. They have very different personalities and you need to understand that cats are just more independent.

The best place to start training your cat is to teach it not to jump on the table. Ideally, you will start teaching your cat this when it is still a kitten. This way the cat grows up knowing that the table is not where they should be.

Make sure that you do not put food on the table for them because this will give them a mixed message and they will not understand what to do.

Your cat should also be taught to stop biting. One thing that can help with this is if you watch where you pet or touch the cat. Some cats are edgy about various areas of their bodies. Female cats especially can become upset if you touch their hindquarters. When cats are touched in ways that bother them, they may bite.

Cats make wonderful pets. If you teach them right from wrong when they are a kittens, they grow up knowing how to behave. It's much harder to teach an older cat. If for the first year of its life a cat has been allowed on the table and then you try to train it, it will be confused as to why suddenly it is not supposed to do something that used to be ok.

It may take some time before they know what you consider right from wrong but they will get it.

Remember, a well-behaved cat is a more pleasant pet to have. It will make a big difference to your enjoyment of your pet.

Invest some time and effort into teaching your cat the proper way to behave. This will be well worth it. Know at the outset, though, that it won't happen overnight.
