Training Guide
Supervised Tie Out Method
Goal:
To train your cat to turn towards home every time he hears the warning beep from the Receiver Collar.
Training should take about one week.
Setup:
1. When training a cat, use a harness for attaching the tie-out.
2. Set the Receiver Collar to Correction Level 2 or 3 depending on the size and temperament of your cat. The higher the
Correction Level, the stronger the Static Correction.
3. Cats must wear Receiver Collars much tighter than standard collars. Both Contact Points must touch the skin.
4. Purchase a 15’ to 20’ yard tie-out from any pet store.
Steps:
1. Insert the yard anchor in the ground so the end of the tie-out reaches 1 to 2 feet past the Warning Zone.
2. To ensure your cat’s well being, be sure there is shade and fresh water within the radius of the tie-out.
3. Attach your cat’s harness to the tie-out.
4. Leave your cat in the tie-out area for 4 to 6 hours. Supervision is required for your cat’s safety. Your supervision will
monitor whether your cat has received a correction and whether your cat is learning the system.
5. Move the tie-out to different areas of the Boundary.
6. Continue the training for 3 days. During this period, your cat will learn to recognize the warning beep and to avoid the
Static Correction Zone.
Supervise your pet in the yard for several weeks.
Leave the Boundary Flags in place for 3 weeks after your cat is trained. Then remove every other Boundary Flag every 4
days until they are all gone. Keep the Boundary Flags for future use. Regularly check the Receiver Collar and the fi t against
your cat’s skin.
