Keeping Cats Away

I understand your thoughts about negative reinforcement, but animals, like people, are individuals. What works for me and my animals, may not work for another person, as the original poster described. I believe it's important that we not be judgmental about how people care for their animals, unless they're clearly being abused. I think that this post is starting to slide into that area, and that troubles me.

Thank you for your thoughtful words, Dolly. I was trying to figure out as a moderator how to gently handle this and word it, but my think-time has been limited so far today.

What Dolly says ^^ We don't need to start a cat fight here.
