The kitten brings joy, comfort, a cheerful and lively atmosphere to the house - but the joy of the appearance of a small living creature can be overshadowed by his bad manners and bad manners, since the kitten has not yet been trained in the rules of behavior. Most of all, the owners are upset when the kitten scratches and bites them, causing bodily harm. To deal with this problem, you shouldn't blame the kitten for intentionally harming you - it is not. Try to figure out what are the reasons why the kitten bites and scratches.
Instructions
Step 1
There are several reasons for feline aggression. If a kitten is not feeling well, or something hurts, he will show aggression towards people approaching him. A veterinarian examination will help determine if the cause of the aggression is due to illness.
Step 2
Also, cats often show aggression when they are frightened. In case of fright, the cat immediately begins to defend itself - so determine what exactly scared the cat and eliminate the cause of the fear.
Step 3
Perhaps the cat is aggressive, as it sees other cats in the neighbors or in the yard, which it considers to be its rivals and competitors. In this case, she, unable to attack the enemy, attacks her masters.
Step 4
Eliminate the reasons for this behavior - close the windows with curtains, do not allow the cat to constantly sit on the balcony, from which she can see other animals. You can also give your cat special sedatives.
Step 5
Most often, cats bite and scratch their owners when they are too addicted to the game. The kitten does not yet know how to behave, and therefore, playing with you, it can inadvertently hurt you. Here you can fix the problem only by systematically raising a kitten. Let him know that you can scratch and bite specially designed toys and scratching posts, and biting your hands is unacceptable.
Step 6
Play with the kitten, offering him a variety of toys - this way, he will get used to the fact that the object to play is not your body, but a third-party object. While playing with the kitten, let him hunt for a toy, look for it and bring it to you, and after playing, do not forget to reward the kitten with a treat.
Step 7
If the kitten nevertheless bit you, do not twitch, but move the bitten hand towards the cat's mouth. Moving towards her, and not away from her, you will cause bewilderment in the cat, and she will let you go. Make loud noises when bitten, which can make it clear to the kitten that he is doing the wrong thing.
