Day 1 - Boundary Flag Response

2
Goal:
The Boundary Flags are visual aids indicating the Boundary in the early training stages. The goal is to train your
cat to move away from a Boundary Flag.
Steps:
1. Inside the house, introduce your cat to the Boundary Flag by holding one steadily in front of you.
2. Your cat should walk towards you to investigate the Boundary Flag.
3. As your cat gets near, wave the Boundary Flag vigorously towards his face and in a fi rm voice say "no, no, no."
4. Each time your cat responds by running away, put the fl ag out of sight and go to praise and give attention to him.
It should not take long to get a 100% "move away" response using this method.

Days 2 thru 4 – Boundary Awareness - Warning
Phase
3 Zone
Perform three or four training sessions per day, each lasting 10 – 15 minutes.
Important:
• Your cat MUST stay in a harness for training, to allow for any unpredictable response. The harness also
gives you control to guide your cat to a 'place of safety' within the Pet Area once warned or corrected
by the Receiver Collar.
• If your cat attempts to leave the Pet Area, make sure he does not get past the Boundary Flags. Never
let the cat past the Boundary Flags with or without the Receiver Collar on. If your cat thinks he can
pass the Boundary Flags, training will take longer.
Goal:
To teach your cat to associate the beep with the position of the Warning Zone.
Steps:
1. At this stage, the cat should not wear the Receiver Collar – carry it in your hand.
2. Set the Receiver Collar to Level 1 (beep only).
3. Put the harness and lead on your cat. Lead him into the Pet Area and up to a chosen point by the Boundary Flags.
4. Holding the Receiver Collar near your cat's ears, lead him into the Warning Zone.
5. As the beep sounds, urgently say 'run away, run away' while pulling your cat on the harness into the Pet Area. Praise
and give affection to your cat.
6. Connect the response to the beep with the Boundary Flag response by carrying a spare Boundary Flag. Produce
the Boundary Flag and wave it at the point the Receiver Collar starts to beep.
7. Repeat the process at several different Boundary Flags.
8. As you repeatedly lead your cat to the Boundary Flags and the warning beep sounds, you should notice some
_____________________________________________________ reluctance from him, and he should try to move away.
