Do your pets start going where they weren't supposed to once this is removed?

i think it's more of a time of offence deterrent than training device, but it does help. I'd get a few.

Yes, after a period of time. I have it placed on my leather sofa. The cat ignores the device - but the dogs stay down when it's on. This works for a while and eventually they realize it is off and they'll be up on the couch again. So I just keep it on!

Yes, they quickly understand that it is the device and when it's removed they have permission to get on the furniture. If you have trained them to not get on furniture when you are home you should be good to go.

It really depends on how curious & daring your cats are. I have three, one will try about once a month and the other two don't bother.

yes and I have two cats one doesn't mind the sound of this and goes there anyway and the second minds it cause he knows it gets me running to check what's wrong

I placed this on my couch the day I got the tattle tale. I have moved it a few times but they haven't even tried to get on the couch. I love the tattle tale!!!!!

He did once, but I've purchased some electronic toys that have been keeping him busy & he's way better. I have to keep his view of the outdoors blocked, too. He sees the strays in the neighborhood & that's when he'll do it. Watch or go to Internet site for the show, "My cat from hell", he gives lots of help. Give them toys, cat nip, keep 'me busy! And get a Nature's Miracle urine cleanser. Black lights help show where they've gone. I have 5 cats. :D

My wife tends to change it anytime she notices pee on it. If the pup or dog has pooped she just scoops that off and flushes it down the toilet. I tend to let them go a couple of times on it. I guess it comes down to preference.

I found that the cat(s) experience is so disturbing, they avoid the area it was on. You may initially need to re-train by putting it back on now & then...but not often.

It does resume. However your cats might miss a feeding time once if it happens around the scheduled cycle.

On occasion my other dog set off the collar. You could always tell when it happened because the dog wearing the collar ran away quickly. I saw it happen a handful of times. It obviously didn't deter me from using the collar.

We recommend keeping the dogs from the are when applying the spray. Once it has dried the dogs can be left back in the area.

No. Once they get through it it's done for. The line snapped so much that I found it useless and my dog still got out.

I don't think so but check with Petmate.com. I'm so sorry for you that this happened - it sounds like something several people might do.

it doesn't... I checked it with almost any animal from Chicken to Bunnies... Squirlls and Dogs - NO ANIMAL seems to be really affected by it. My dog was initially scared of it but once he learned it does nothing - he comes there all the time... poops and leave... it's USELESS !! do NOT BUY ! I have 3 and they are just for show... a converstaion starter... that's about it

I personally have removed mine as my Lab has gotten so much better from his training&so; far so good.

According to the pkg insert it is supposed to shut down if dog is not in.motion. It's motion activated and should go back in with movement.

I once left our roomba running and forgot to put our dog out to do his morning business. When I returned, he'd opted to take a squat on the living room floor, and the roomba had found it. The result was like modern art - barely an inch of the floor didn't have dog do smeared across it.

Yes I moved it to the end and I have much better access to the dog without reaching across the table. Where I moved it to is a back saver.

At first it was very good for my Yorkies until they discovered how to get out. In the middle it has an opening at the bottom and your cat will discover that opening.

No. These are 2 cages stacked top to bottom with a closeable hatch on the bottom of the top cage. You can actually separate them and use them as 2 stand-alone cages (we moved our pet this way when we moved...)

Pets can go through the screen and damage it. The screen just floats in the track at the bottom.

our rat terrier used to jump up on our kitchen table. we installed a scat mat on the table. when we arrived back home the contents of the table were in disarray. Skippy never jumped on the table again!
