2. Fit the Receiver Collar as detailed in Step 9 of this guide.

3. As in Phase 1, lead your cat to the Boundary Flags, but let him move through the Warning Zone to receive the

small Static Correction.

Note: You may need to remove every other ﬂag at this stage to encourage your cat to approach the Static Correction Zone.

4. When your cat is corrected, urgently say “run away, run away” while pulling him into the Pet Area where the beep

will stop. Praise and give affection to your cat.

5. If your cat ignores the Static Correction, ﬁrst check the Receiver Collar ﬁt to ensure good contact with the skin

and try again. If he still ignores the correction, try gradually increasing the Correction Level as detailed in Step 5

of this manual until he reacts.

6. This should complete the association with the need to move away from the Boundary. If your cat has responded

well to the previous steps, it should not be necessary to purposefully make your cat experience a Static Correction

more than once or twice.

Days 8 thru 14 – Unleashed Observation

Training sessions should start at 10 – 15 minutes, gradually increasing to one hour and more.

Your cat is ready for this phase only when he normally avoids the Boundary Flag line. During this phase, watch your

cat carefully.

Goal:

To give your cat free run of the Pet Area.

Steps:

1. Fit the Receiver Collar as detailed in Step 9 of this guide.

2. Allow your cat freedom in your property while you act as a minder.

3. Observe your cat as he approaches the Boundary and receives warning beeps and Static Corrections on his own. If he

responds by turning away from the Boundary and is not distressed, your cat is ready to move on to the ﬁnal Phase.
