Re: How do I keep cat from cheweing headphones and attaching my dad's feet

That seems abusive to me (and, I admit, I watch a lot of Jackson Galaxy, and he says it is abusive).

It is basic training. Like, literally the basis of all training. But, if not you just need to learn to live with chewed up wires. Of course, a bit of water is safer than chewing on wires.

That seems like a stretch. It doesn't hurt them at all, it just surprises them. That being said, I'm not sure how effective it actually is or if it has long-term benefits.

I don't know if it works for cats, but you might try Bitter Apple spray on the headphones, because it could be really dangerous if kitty gets in the habit of chewing wires. Otherwise, redirect. Don't let kitty attack dad's feet, redirect with a toy. Don't let him even start playing before Dad walks away or shoos him off. He shouldn't associate feet with being a toy. Redirect with an appropriate toy.

It's not abusive at all. Like the above anon said, it doesn't hurt them, it just startles them and they don't like it. Once they get squirted a bunch of times (how many times will honestly depend on the cat, some are stubborn and will keep on trying to do it anyway and others dislike it so much they'll stop pretty much right away), they'll learn to associate being squirted with that thing you don't want them to do and will stop doing it.

It took my cat a little under a week to learn that she's not allowed on the kitchen counters that way. I would just give her a light spritz with a mini plant mister whenever I caught her up there. It didn't hurt her, it just made her not want to be up there, which was the goal.

Well. You're trying to discourage negative and potentially dangerous behavior in your cat. In order to achieve that, I'm pretty sure you're going to have to do SOMETHING it won't like or find pleasant. If you're not willing to do that, then you're going to have to try harder to keep wires out of your cat's reach and maybe your dad can wear boots all the time, idk.
