RE: What do you do when your cat won't listen to you?
If I call my cat at the same exact moment that I open her can of food, she will come. Other than that, it probably isn't going to happen. Punishment doesn't work for cats. Dogs can associate a punishment with their behavior. Cats just think that guy is mean to them. On the flip side though, cats can totally connect rewards with their behavior. If she meows in the middle of the night and you feed her to make her be quiet, she assumes that she should meow in the middle of the night every night and reap the rewards. You don't train your cat, your cat trains you.
