Be Patient With Your Cat

Important: Proper training of your cat is essential to the success of the PetSafe

In-Ground Cat Fence
• Training should be fair, firm and consistent.
• Train for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Don't try to do too much too quickly. More-frequent short sessions are better
than less-frequent longer sessions.
• If your cat shows signs of stress, slow down the training schedule and/or add additional days of training.
• Finish each training session with lots of praise and affection.
• Remove the Receiver Collar after each training session.
• Keep your cat on a harness attached to a lead during training sessions.
• Even if you think your cat is responding well to the training, complete the entire training.
Reinforcement is important.
• Regularly check the fit of the Receiver Collar against your cat's skin.

Preparation

Your goal is to train your cat to turn away from the Boundary Zone every time he hears the warning beep from the
Receiver Collar.
During training, your cat must develop an understanding of the Boundary and that you require him to remain within it.
Cats are independent creatures. In order to gain the correct response, you must always work with a kind, calm and
respectful manner. Gain your cat's trust and you will build a mutual respect which will ultimately lead to success.
It must be remembered that by their very nature cats are more agile and therefore more mobile than dogs. You
must be very aware of your training environment. If it is possible for your cat to climb on a shed or up a tree, taking
the Receiver Collar out of reach of the signal from the Boundary Wire, then it is possible that he could jump the
Boundary without receiving a Static Correction.
The time scale for fully training your cat can range from one to two weeks. During the training period, you should
be able to detect from your cat's response if it is time to move on to the next training phase.
