I posted something on TikTok earlier, but this is ~different footage~. Feel free to return for a 30 second break if needed throughout the evening. ‘Zac is here for you. What a guy, am I right?

Cat behavior tip: Putting your cat on their cat furniture isn’t going to suddenly make them love using it. It might scare them, though, and prevent them from using it later.
Let them discover it on their own.
Yes, this includes the litter box. No need to
“show” them where it is when you bring them home or to a new place. Put it in a location they can find and they’ll take over from there. They’re like self cleaning ovens in some regards.
Just... don’t eat anything that comes out of this self cleaning oven.
Need behavior help for your cat? I’m available for private consultations! I work mostly with intercat conflict, litter box issues, and human directed aggression. #catsofinstagram #catbehavior #cats
You need to scoop your litter box daily.
Cats are less likely to use a little box with a lot of clumps in it (which is actually more important than being odor free according to a study from a few years back).
Find scopping tough? Get a Litter Genie.
You scoop right into it and take the bag out once it’s full. The odor gets sealed away so it doesn’t smell in the meantime.
(FYI: They didn’t sponsor this video. It is just a good product 🤷🏻♂️)
Want more litter box tips? Head to my blog. I have a lot of resources there! And if you need help with a cat not using the litter box or spraying, l’m available for consultations.

An alternative to putting a costume on your cat is using filter. I used it to test if either of my cats are evil and… well, you’ll have to watch to find out. 💀👀 #cats #catsofminnesota #catbehavior #classactcats #poutinecat #prozaccat #halloween #spookycats

Who “wore” it better? Sister Mary Prozac or Poutine Potter?? 🎃 Cats don’t like Halloween costumes. I know they’re cute for us, but chances are your cat only finds it stressful.
If you want to do something spooky with them, try Canva or photoshop, use them as a prop for your costume, or do a photoshoot with decorations instead of a costume.

Will my cats like their new bananas or will they think I’m B-A-N-A-N-A-S? Only one way to find out. 👀 Not every toy is right for every cat so it’s actually totally okay that I got this outcome. You have to try different toys and/or try different ways of playing with your cat to really get them engaged. 🐈⬛ I hear people all the time whose cats “don’t like toys” who I can get playing with a different toy or playing differently. 🐈 That includes your cat, skeptical person I hear typing a comment! You just haven’t found the right toy or aren’t playing with your cat in the right way. 😻Looking for a guide on which toys your cat will actually like or how to play with your cat? I gotchu. Head to my blog to see my guide with some considerations. #catbehavior #catplay #cutecat #cats #cattoys #classactcats
Voluntary sharing is a very useful pattern game origjnally from Control Unleashed by Leslie McDevitt. Your cat needs to have a basic behavior trained using clicker training in order to play it, but it’s so helpful for cat introductions or reducing tension between cats. 🐈 The basic pattern of regular clicker training: Cat does wanted behavior, mark it with a click, cat gets a treat. 🐈⬛ Voluntary sharing: Cat does a behavior, mark with a click, the OTHER cat gets a treat, the cat then gets their treat. 🐈 In some cases you need to do some prep work before your cat will be ok playing this so use caution in caes of more severe aggression… but that’s a bit beyond this video 😸For more info on cat training or if you need individual behavior help, head to my website! There’s more ‘Zac and Poutine there, too. 👀 #catbehavior #clickertraining #cattrainer #cats #trainyourcat #cattraining #trainingcats
Hi Prozac 👋🏻 #cat #cats #catbehavior #flamepointsiamese #prozaccat
Calypso here is demonstrating an important cat behavior: the butt wiggle. The butt wiggle is a good thing to look for while playing with your cat as it means you’re doing a good job simulating hunting. Plus, it’s also pretty heckin’ cute.
And if you want to learn how to get your cat’s butt wiggling, come to my workshop on playing with your cat!
