Does your pet aspire to work in the areas of gardening, electrical work, stuffed animal surgery, or even hazardous waste disposal? Given the opportunity, many pets engage in activities that are downright dangerous. As their owners, it is our responsibility to maintain the safety of these zany, ambitious pets.

An Easter Egg Hunt for Your Cat

Cat training and management
Clicker training is a valuable tool for teaching your cat fun new tricks, and for helping to manage unwanted behaviors.
Feline Frenzies
By KPCT on 10/22/2006My cat gets in these "frenzies," dashing across the apartment, leaping onto the window sill, and it takes quite a bit of time for her to calm down. Is there an application of the clicker method that would help? I suspect she is very uncomfortable during these frenzies and I don't know how to help her relax.
