The only thing that works for you.  Not everyone hits their animals.  For
the record, I have never hit my animals.  I can't even imagine hitting a
cat.  Animal trainers don't hit animals.  I'm sorry it's the only thing
that works for you.  It's the same reason spanking "works" for parents,
because they don't know there's a better way, and they don't know the
consequences of spanking.  And they don't want to know.  Hey, maybe someday
you'll visit someone's house and you won't wipe your feet before walking in
and they'll give you a nice firm ass smack.  Then, if you don't put the
glass in the dishwasher, you'll get another nice firm ass smack.  And
another.  And another.  Eventually you'll get the idea on how things are
supposed to be done over there.
