How much joy a fluffy playful lump delivers when it first enters the house. And how much disappointment we have from his serious bites, which the kitten inflicts at the most inopportune time, for example, during the sleep of the owner. Is it possible to wean a little animal from biting and how?
Instructions
Step 1
The very first thing that is usually done in such cases is the punishment of the kitten. But this method will develop a reflex in the baby only if the nibbles are punished at the time of the bite. Otherwise, he simply will not understand why he was hit in the face and will become cowardly.
Step 2
During play, kittens release their claws and grab the toy with their teeth, very often the hands of the owner or family members become this object. And the owners themselves sometimes so often tease the kitten, tickle him on the tummy, that he gets used to playing with his hands. The consequences are dire. A mischief-maker can easily grab his hand in the middle of the night, it is worth in a dream to involuntarily move at least a finger.
Step 3
Therefore, try not to provoke aggressive games, and if this has already happened, then find another object for him to bite, hang a fishing rod with a toy, give him balls and balls and often play with these objects. Of course, it may not be funny at all when you have to untangle a naughty kitten from a ball of thread, but still it is much more preferable than smearing scratches and bites with green paint.
Step 4
It so happens that the kitten bites, despite the measures taken, then you can scare him. If, during the next attack on your legs or hands, you lie in wait for him and splash a jet of water from a water pistol into his face, then the wet ponytail will remember this unpleasant moment for a long time. It's also good to make some loud bang, for example, to pierce a balloon. Several of these insurance therapy sessions will help wean the kitten from biting.
Step 5
To sleep peacefully at night, without fear of a sudden attack by a biting furry, play it and feed it to the bone. Unfortunately, this method is not suitable for all kittens, some "energizers" are able to rush around the house all night long.
