I have 12 cats and 2 Boxers... I don't abuse them, and I don't "HIT" them, if my Boxers act out, I take the leash and pop them on the back hip area with it to get their attention but never hard enough to cause them to yelp or anything like that.
With my cats, they are a completely different story. I have 12 of them, they all know their names and they all listen to me. I tried the squirting water from a watergun at them like they say to do, MY cats thought it was a game and didn't respond to that at all... I did everything to keep them off my counters, and I finally got this brainstorm of an idea in my head to thump one on her ear, not hard, just enough to stop her in her tracks..... amazingly this worked so well that all I had to do after the 2nd or 3rd time was to come at her like I was going to get her ear, and thump right beside it, not even touching her, but she heard the sound of it and stopped doing what she was doing.
Of my 12 cats, I don't have one that gets on the counters to actually DO anything, they may put two front feet on my bar, but that's about it, and I say their names and they get down...
We have the most well behaved cats on the planet. And I found out that Persians and Himalayans are too damn lazy to jump on the counters, they want you to fucking SERVE their shit to them on silver platters, to hell with actually working for their shit and getting on the counters, "Bring it to me bitch".. lmao
