How to Stop a Kitten from Biting: Tricks That Always Work
Even during infancy, cats remain predators and actively use their sharp teeth, which can cause significant pain to their owners.
Don't turn a blind eye to such pranks: train your pet from the very beginning.
The following simple tips will help you wean him off biting.
1. If the kitten starts to show aggression and attacks you, biting its fangs into your arms and legs, spray it with water from a spray bottle - not a strong stream, but a light one.
It is enough to use the spray several times for the animal to understand the connection between the bite and the subsequent punishment.
2. If you are playing with a kitten and it gets so carried away that it starts using its teeth and claws, try to distract its attention.
For this you will need some other object - a ball, a string or any other favorite toy.
3. When your furry little one digs his teeth and claws into your hand too hard, try to relax the limb.
Instinctively, the kitten will unclench its jaws and loosen its “deadly” grip.
4. To avoid provoking your pet to aggression, do not get carried away with excessive tactile actions towards the kitten.
This does not mean that you cannot pet it – it means that you cannot pull the animal by the tail, make sudden movements, grab it by the paws and ears, etc.
Because you act as a provocateur, your cat will be forced to defend itself from attacks.
