Many cats become scared when people appear in the house that the pet is not used to.
How to protect your four-legged friend from severe stress? Stop inviting guests?
But this is not a solution! Friends and acquaintances may misunderstand your decision. In addition, the problem with the animal itself will remain.
It is better to ensure that the fluffy one stops feeling fear of strangers.
To do this, you need to follow a few simple recommendations, reports HERE NEWS .
Safety zone
In an apartment, an animal should have its "own" space. This is a place where the pet can hide in a moment of "danger".
A good option is a cat house.
Gradually getting used to guests
If you see that your cat is afraid when there are a lot of strangers in the house, temporarily refuse to invite a large number of guests.
First, invite one friend to your apartment. Then two friends. And so on.
Accompany the appearance of guests with something good
The cat will stop experiencing stress when strangers appear if the pet begins to associate this event with something pleasant.
For example, with the appearance of very tasty food in the bowl.
Do not increase pressure on the cat
Explain to guests that they should not approach the animal. Allow friends to interact with your pet only if the furry creature approaches people on its own.
In addition, meeting with friends should not be accompanied by noise.
Don't be mad at the cat
If your four-legged friend can't get used to strangers, don't be angry with him.
There is no need to punish the pet. Patience and love of the owner - that's what will help the cat cope with its fears.
