They are an effective training tool. People who detract from them simply need to educate themselves more on the matter. They aren't cruel, they aren't abusive - leaving one cat to steadily torment another cat and cause it to wither away from stress and a host of injuries which will likely eventually become infected on the other hand...

its exactly because you dont like cats that you consider them to be ok. a shock is electrocution, inflicting pain is an archaic form of training which does more damage to an animal than positive reinforcement - its the very reason that some dogs can switch from being sweet and kind to ripping a childs face off without provocation. basic psychology, this kind of training has been understood to be damanging for at least the last 20 years
