Even if you are crazy about your cat and regularly pamper it, sometimes your pet's behavior can be irritating.

It's easy to understand: cats, like people, can rarely boast of an ideal character.

But you shouldn’t blame the animal for this – often the fault lies with its owner, as, for example, in situations when a cat begins to demonstrate selectivity in food.

Sometimes a pet that is used to a certain food will never touch another food, even if it feels very hungry.

Let's find out how to prevent this, undoubtedly, unwanted behavior of your pet.

Experts recommend thinking about this issue in advance, even before a kitten appears in your home.

Immediately prepare for your purr the food that you plan to buy for him on a regular basis, but do not forget that the animal needs a varied diet that would satisfy all his needs for essential substances.

Try to accustom your cat to a certain food during the first six months of its life, because it will be much more difficult to fight an established habit.

If it happens that you have to work on changing your pet's eating behavior (for example, on the advice of a veterinarian), do it gradually, adding pieces of the new food to your pet's usual food.
