Television and radio coverage has already been arranged. The pro- gram has been carefully put together and offers something for everyone in the family. The only thing the Organizing Committee Talk 'not to bite. By Alice Scott Once a cat has developed a clawing or biting habit, he must be made to change. This can be done quite easily if you are persistent and do not give in to him. Like training a puppy, you . must consistently follow the same methods. If your cats claws are in you, relax and calmly remove them by first pushing the feet a bit for- ward. Always stay calm when training any animal. They are very susceptible to any change in your feelings. If your cat bites you, press your arm toward the tceth, this will confuse the cat and he should release his grip. Then put the cat away from you with a gentle but firm mes- sage of disapproval. Don't look at him or talk to him for twenty minutes. If he comes towards you leave the room. A few repetitions is usually all that is needed to teach your cat cannot guarantee is the weathcr and participation by the commu- nity. With the varicty and quanti- ty of events available, the Carnival could be the biggest and best on the North Shore. So fara number of the events advertised that require pre-registration are not receiving a good response. The committce requires pre-regis- tration so we can arrange for the television and radio coverage. If you are planning to enter the Ice Sculpturcs, Talent Show, Dart Tournament or wish to attend the Family Slcigh Ride or Downhill Tip to Thunder Bay, we ask that you contact the recreation office When ever you must give your cat medicine wrap him in a towel or pillow case. Have your vet teach you the correct method of holding a cat. Teach children not to pick up a cat, unless they are trained in handling them properly. Cats are not traincd the same way as dogs. They have a very independent nature; but you can shape their behavior in desirable directions. Never yell, scold or strike your cat. This will only cause fear in your pet and he will avoid you. You must train him with affec- tion, understanding and consis- tency. If your cat likes walking on your counter tops use a spray bot- tlc with water. Each time he jumps on the counter, spray him and tell him firmly "No." Praise him after when he stays of the counter. Next week "house breaking your new puppy."
