Default Controlling cats with hissing

On 2006-05-03, Rhino penned:

I'm just curious whether anyone else has ever tried hissing at their
cats to make them stop doing something and what, if any results, you
got?


I hiss at Oscar when she does something really upsetting, like
scratching or biting. Other than that, a simple "Oscar" in a warning
tone (low voice, drawn out, with a slight change in tone at the end)
typically works. For me, that is. DH can use the same warning tone,
but she ignores him.
