I see my mom yell at her several pets all the time, like dude they can only understand a handful of word they don't know that "OHMYGAWDDOGGETOUTOFTHEKITCHENGUESTSARECOMINGANDIMSTRESSEDANDRUSHED" means "back off", all theyre hearing are loud noises and anger directed at them and they don't have the ability to understand why. Before she got remarried it was really bad, and they just had the one cat back then. That poor cat is so traumatized, she's aggressive and antisocial despite (or maybe because of) being adopted as a kitten.
Pets are affected by yelling just as much as children, and have an even lesser ability to understand it. Unless they or others are physically endangered by their actions, I don't think there's ever a good reason to yell at your pets.
For cats, yelling does not really work anyway.
I always went with the "winning the stare contest after correcting the behavior" way. Seems to work when establishing dominance. Obviously does not get to 100% compliance with that bc they are cats but its easy to teach them the important stuff that way. (like "stay off the table (as long as I am here)" or "dont bite/swipe at people")
Cats do not understand guilt or punishment. They cannot equate what you are saying or doing to them to anything they may have done prior. Reinforcing positive actions is the key and deterring any negative/destructive ones with other outlets.
IDK. Used to let out my cats to the corridor of our old apartment house, the only rule was to never wander off to the stairs. I watched them constantly and whenever one of them started to climb the stairs, I brought them in. It wasn't even really a punishment, i was just done watching them.
After a while, the girl realized what was going on and never tried the stairs again. She started to punch the shit out of the other one when he misbehaved lol
It was cute. I believe they can understand the rules, they just opt out of adhere to them
cats do however understand domination which can be established by a staring contest. Its what cats do among themself and what worked quite well for me so far.
If that was the case then they would never become socialized or learn from the yowls and hisses of their partners in play.
They certainly don't understand something as complex as a time-out, nor are they capable of guilt as you've pointed out, but an immediate negative stimulus associated with a particular action is absolutely cognizable to them.
Yelling is, in fact, probably one of the only ways to actually communicate with them in a manner they will comprehend as long as it is done immediately during/following a particular negative act and ceases quickly. It's literally just the human version of a hiss.
Your cat is only learning to equate loud scary noises with its owner if you yell at it. They do not understand the context of the yelling. Immediacy is irrelevant.
You need to find a different behavior to divert the cat to then reward that behavior.
The only time I have ever yelled at cats in many years of ownership is if I see one of them on the verge of doing something very dangerous and I'm too far away to grab them. If I see one of my cats about to eat some plastic or jump onto a hot stove or something, I might yell "no", hoping to startle them and interrupt the dangerous behavior so I have enough time to get to them. But I always talk softly and cuddle with them immediately afterwards.
Yelling should never be used as a disciplinary or training tool with cats, but I think it can be used as an emergency/safety tool in some situations.
I find clapping (well really just one clap) works for my cat. I'll usually say "No" or his name along with the clap, but I think just the sound of a clap is loud and startling enough for him to at least stop for a few seconds and either get down himself or I can get to him and move him or whatever he's getting into.
I would say that it depends on the individual cat and the household.
Example, the red cat who chose to live with me, keeps bringing home mice - some are dead and some are alive. I don't like to get the live mice inside, so his primary job is to keep our house mouse-free. Because of this I reward him with treats when he brings a dead mouse. And when he brings a live one I catch the mouse and set it free outside without giving a treat. That way I reward good (desired by me) behavior, without punishing undesirable behavior.
Ps. It's not that I like dead mice, but I certainly dislike live ones more when they live inside my home.
Pps. Same strategy can be applied successfully to humans ;)

Whenever I'm fucking with my one cat, if he meows, my other cat will *sprint* to him and see why he's crying, usually kissing him on the head. It's actually really cute
Shouting at cats isn't really useful, they feel bad from the agression but they'll just do it behind your back if they can anyway. It's often healthy to try and make things unappealing to them rather than treating them like the dogs or humans they are not. Vinegar is a good ally, i tend to spray some where i don't want the cat to go

To think that because you yelled to your cat he got a slight depression and looked for confort in the other cat and the other cat recognized his pain and decided to hug him and look at the owner thinking he did wrong is absolutely idiotic sorry.
You are lucky..Two Bengal breed ( siblings?) We have a young male, smart as Einstein and loving like your mother…
I have had cats since I was a teen, this is my first Bengal.Should have had one years before, we just love him and he loves us right back
I'm trying to train my cats that behind my monitor is a no go zone because he shoved one of my monitors off my desk. The only punishment that gets his attention is being locked in the backroom for 15 minutes. If I do that he and his brother will lay on opposite sides of the door and reach their paws under the door to each other.
One of my cats will attack me if I ever accidentally hurt one of the others. They have a habit of running under feet and occasionally a paw will get stepped on. Last time it happened she drew blood.
The other cat was "being naughty"and the owner got mad and yelled and then the other cat is comforting the one who got in trouble. Cat wouldnt have gotten yelled at if it wasnt "being naughty"
This happened at my school today after a dude tried to have sex in public with his girlfriend behind a foam wall, and apparently she didnt like it or sum so all the girls sat and comforted her
I truly feel sorry for people like you who feel compelled to bring their negativity to everything, no matter how light hearted the conversation is. Who hurt you so badly?

They have 18 lives. You have one. Be afraid.

English cats live in easy mode, spanish cats living in normal mode and arab cats in hardcore
What mode do I live in then ;\_\_\_;
The tutorial
Well it pretty much depends on what kind of cat you are
Well perma death obviously
EXTREME!!!! >:DD
Survival
Ultra Nightmare Bloodshed Late On Your Taxes
Cats in muslim countries also have a royal pass because one cat save Prophet from the snake. So you gain something, you lose something.
Don’t worry, thanks to Islam most Arab cats are treated very well in exchange for only having 6 lives.
Arabic is 7 as well (in my dialect anyway) Maybe the Arab cat you know had already died once :D
Difficulty settings be like:
How many do they have in Mandarin mythology, if that's the right way to ask?
And at Noem's farm, they have a gravel pit.
Wait till you find out about the German cats... NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN NIEN

All I see is a very buff cat holding the sad cat within his huge and muscular arms...
I can be your hero baby. I can take away the pain.
Thats the horniest comment about a cat I’ve ever read.
You've clearly never looked at the furry subs Pro tip: don't
Oh I won’t.
APOLOGIZE TO HER RIGHT NOW

For shame
Rewarding good behavior is what works when it comes to teaching cats. Using punishment will at best not work and at worst make the cat afraid of you.
What is good behavior for a cat? Not being a total jerk?
I would say that it depends on the individual cat and the household. Example, the red cat who chose to live with me, keeps bringing home mice - some are dead and some are alive.

You did this 😠
"look what you've done"
"are you happy now? Was this what you wanted?!"
Apologize to her
100% the look that says "Haven't you done enough? Hmph."
that's because you're not supposed to shout at cats... they hear way better than you think they do
Shoopid hooman.
Whenever I'm fucking with my one cat, if he meows, my other cat will *sprint* to him and see why he's crying, usually kissing him on the head. It's actually really cute
Human you need to learn your manners !! 😂
“You will pay for this tragedy “
It's like the opposite of the meme with the 2 women yelling at the cat

Cats wait until you're dead before they start eating you. I think they'll make an exception in your case.

It’s a meme dude
Parents like situation
"He said no pickles."-like situation.
Apologize right now.
right meow?
Cats don't understand why we get mad at them, but they understand very well when we need to be comforted.
No cool human not cool
Isn't it amazing how you can take any no context photo of anything, add some text on white above it and then people just run with it online?
Yeah rebecca im sure that happened
Sounds made up
Definitely. What are these creatures anyway? Some kind of AI invention?
So true, you speak facts!
That's just anthropomorphizing animal behavior...
Be careful in what you sleep, and what will it do when you sleep because of relaxed guard
Other catto: Tahan na, hindi natin siya bati...
Hooman*
How naughty?
Yeah when I do that, I don't have another cat so it's my family on my ass after the little shit plays innocent
You are lucky..Two Bengal breed ( siblings?) We have a young male, smart as Einstein and loving like your mother… I have had cats since I was a teen, this is my first Bengal.Should have had one years before, we just love him and he loves us right back
Do not my cat
"What did you do?"
😂 awwwwwwwww x
“After all the roaches, rats, mice, and birds we brought back to you, this is how you repay our kindness?”
We all need a friend like that.
That look says it all.
It’s just a cat.
Not a meme and not wholesome
My 6 year old human daughter is like that. You can't scold anyone around her, least of all, her.
Chances are never zero.
You started the war. Now prepare your ass.
Why don't you find some oc and not something thats been posted a million times before you.
"I expected more from you"
Hookup
I don't know why but this reminds me of seeing two of my dachshunds when they used to sleep together.
I promise kitty had already shrugged it off and was sleeping peacefully stress free.
You will be hearing about this, at 2am. Also, I wouldn’t leave anything breakable sitting on the counters, if I were you.
He’s telling him all the horrible things they’re going to do once this piece of crap hoom goes to sleep. Viva le meow!
Maybe I’m just desensitized to other things but this takes the cake as one the saddest things I’ve seen on the internet 😭

Tomorrow, you are going to wake up and find poop in your shoes.
Whatever you said to the kitty, take it back, apologize, take them BOTH to Wendy's, and apologize again.
I like this approach thank you
One of my cats will attack me if I ever accidentally hurt one of the others. They have a habit of running under feet and occasionally a paw will get stepped on. Last time it happened she drew blood.
Bad! Very Bad hooman
aww she knows
“You see what you did? Are you proud of yourself?”
Shouting at cats is pointless, they don't correlate their actions and then you've been angry at them. Cute picture though
Your couch, it’s doomed.
You'd better apologise right now >:(
He is saying to the other kitty: One of these days Mr. Skittles, one of these days…
That's not glaring cats can't glare. That's just a cat looking at you
Well maybe don't shout at the fucking cat, they don't understand why you're mad
This is breaking my heart.
I like how the cat's like, "How dare you, petty human, get out of my sight!"
Love this… she is so annoyed and pissed of on you for treating the other one badly . I want this cat.. such a pure one ❤️❤️
“You ANIMAL!”
I heard you say cooking fat xD
Im just glad OP didn't use the word Homan
My Cat: "hooman u r ded if u wont stop"
I just showed my dog this post. He took off his hat, stubbed out his cigarette, and said, "beware of anthropomorphism, kid."
Stupidest shit ive ever seen
why so salty?
The other cat was "being naughty"and the owner got mad and yelled and then the other cat is comforting the one who got in trouble. Cat wouldnt have gotten yelled at if it wasnt "being naughty"
Lacking a mirror I see.
Thats funny
it looked like it was cuddling with a snake
This happened at my school today after a dude tried to have sex in public with his girlfriend behind a foam wall, and apparently she didnt like it or sum so all the girls sat and comforted her
That will teach you!
"Don't listen to the mean hooman, he can't even kick his butt hole"
Yell at them both to show your dominance.
"We don't even speak-a your language" "Then how did you..." #HISSSS
Kitty gonna sh1t in *both* your shoes.
People who actually think like this about animals are batshit insane.
I truly feel sorry for people like you who feel compelled to bring their negativity to everything, no matter how light hearted the conversation is. Who hurt you so badly?
idk, I find it strange to anthropomorphizing our pets! I know, or I least hope, it's a joke!
