One of the most effective ways to discipline a cat is through negative reinforcement. This involves setting your cat up to succeed by providing them with plenty of time and patience, then taking away whatever behavior you don't want when they have earned it through performing the desired behavior. This could be implemented by taking away favourite toys or treats when they are not behaving properly. For examples, if a cat does not want to use their litter tray, simply removing them from the room and replacing them in a few hours time will teach them to associate that place with negative outcomes.

Cats respond positively to feedback and reward, so disciplinary strategies like setting boundaries and providing discipline when rules are broken can be effective. Additionally, establishing routines, managing anxiety with feliway or another calming product, and employing tactile responses as rewards for desired behavior (e.g., petting your cat when it's behaved well) can also help reinforce positive outcomes.
