CAT stands for Constructional Aggression Treatment. It was originally developed by Kellie Snyder for her Master's Thesis under the guidance of Dr Jesus Rosales...
Thank you Dolores, I look forward to some good discussion and mutual assistance here with this amazing tool CAT. I'm seeing some profound changes in Jedda...
Kellie and Dr Rosales reasearch demonstrated that you can treat aggression with operant procedures. Previous studies Jesus and his students have done...
Hi Elaine, Yes, please ask questions. We'll all answer as best we can. You have stated the difference between between C/T fear and CAT fear. When you write...
Hi Dolores, I hope it's ok to ask questions here! If not, I guess you'll let me know. Where I get stuck is in the example of Kellie and the roach, if my mother...
Hello Laurel ! I come just back from my first CAt try and there are lots of questions. Cookie was free, lYdi too, they stand at the hay-gate. I come in by the ...
I am slightly confused - might be the way I am interpreting what Doris has said, but it did not seem to me that she applied CAT - there was no distance given...
... Hi Doris, If she put her head under the pad with you I would then take it away behind you to reward her for being so brave. From what Julie was saying...
Dear Dolores, Laurel and all , Thank you very much to invite me to join your group. I know, my English is a bit pityful, and I'm dyslexic (legasthenic) too. So...
I would agree Laurel. Take the pad away at a distance. The more times you can come towards her the better. But, if she is soliciting, time to switch to C/T...

Hi Julie, From your background stuff, as Gracie is also reactive to you I would actually be inclined to just start with yourself as decoy. Don't separate ...
Hi all, Julie Conway said I could post what she wrote as background on her Gracie, which may make my previously posted reply more relevant for ... that someday...
Be careful of falling into the desensitizing trap. From what I read here you took steps forward without retreating. And, you may not have predetermined the...
Hi Julie, You did a great job for a first timer with CAT. You asked how many times you should repeat. You must repeat until you are consistently getting active...
Hi Julie ! Hi laurel ! Oh, I feel with you and Grace, My friend Agnes is back in the States and she will buy the Cat DVDs. Doris bellum gerant alii , tu felix...
Hi Dolores, Something very interesting last night. . . Grace decided that I was not allowed on her right side. So, obviously I'll need to begin the repair...
This is a terrific observation Julie. I agree completely with your assessment based on what you have written. Go for the left side and you may want so simply...
To: the5thquadrant@yahoogroups.com Hi all, Since I last reported on our CAT sessions, we've done Sessions 9, 10, 11 and 12. All brought up some very...
Jedda was very relaxed in the pen, and producing small affiliative behaviours at around 3 feet, so we introduced the decoy putting her hand out at an increased...
Hi all, Session 13, 31 minutes. Back to original set up, 3m x 3m pen, horse at liberty, same decoy. We 'dropped' the extended hand also, for now. There is...
Hi all, Seems there's a glitch with the list and folks are having a bit of a problem getting their posts to appear, but I'll try and post this offlist exchange...
Hi Julie and Laurel Unfortunately I'm still not able to talk about The best way. My friend comes back of the States with the DVDs in one week. But I just...
Introduction and questions Thanks Laurel for inviting me to join this discussion. And Hi to Dolores and Julie - we met 3 or 4 years ago when Julie and I...
Hi all, Thanks Laurel for inviting me to join this discussion. And Hi to Dolores and Julie - we met 3 or 4 years ago when Julie and I stayed at Dolores's...
Hi Juile, We have been taught that food is calming and that if they are eating, they are OK. In the experiments with CAT and CT, I've discovered that there can...
Hi Susan, To incorporate CAT, you must find the trigger. The tools you will need are volunteer decoys. Those are people who will follow your instructions on...
Thanks, Dolores. I've discovered that there can be stress associated with the eating. This makes perfect sense as we are trying to have as many environmental ...

While training Cali the mini guide we came up with a problem. We wanted her to stand quietly next to Mona in the office. Of course we clicked when ever she was...
Julie, You can be the decoy. And, there is no time limit to CAT. Just work on it while you can. The whole process can be very counter intuitive. Say your horse...
