You have a small, gentle fluffy lump, and you are ready to watch his tricks for hours. Of course this is so much fun! But it happens that the kitten needs to be called, for example, to trim the claws. How to make him get used to his nickname and respond to it?
Instructions
Step 1
This is not at all difficult to do. Cats themselves are very smart creatures, so they catch everything on the fly. And we just need to be patient and help him a little.
Step 2
When naming a kitten, try to choose a name that contains hissing and whistling sounds, for example, Fluff, Marsik, Tisha, etc. Try to match the name of your animal's breed as well. Exotic cats - sphinxes - are very suitable names of Egyptian deities. And to fluffy Persians - aristocratic, even royal (Louis, Boniface). From all these names, you can come up with diminutive nicknames for ease of handling and easier perception by your pets.
Step 3
The kitten should be accustomed to the name as soon as you bring it into the house. Calling him to eat or drink milk, say "kitty-kitty-kitty" and the name of the animal. To begin with, do this when you are in the fluff's line of sight. Then he will correlate tasty dishes and his nickname and very quickly get used to responding to it.
Step 4
You can also do this during the game. Having tied the bow to the string, run away from the kitten, while pronouncing its name. Let yourself be caught up. Praise the kitten if he ran after you, and scratch behind his ear.
Step 5
You will need a little patience and your little one will remember his name. It will be a little more difficult for you if the cat is already an adult. But all the same, after one and a half to two weeks of training, she will begin to respond to a new nickname. Above all, always praise and caress your cat when it comes to your call. Then the process of getting used to the new name will be easy and simple and will bring pleasure to both of you.
