If a kitten is taken away from its mother too early, it may not receive proper upbringing – its claws and teeth can cause real harm to its owner.
The whole point is that the kitten simply cannot calculate its own strength.
He doesn't know how to play properly and that bites can hurt - after all, he is a small predator.
Luckily, some tips can help.
How to stop a kitten from biting and scratching
Here are 6 tips.
- Toys. You can redirect the cat's attention to a toy. It is important to show with your behavior that you are not pleased.
- Scratching post. Try to accustom your pet to a scratching post. This will make its "weapon" less formidable.
- Stop the game and ignore him. He will simply get tired of playing with himself and will do other things.
- Use your voice. Express emotions loudly, but do not shout or scold your pet.
- Play more often. Set aside 10-15 minutes to play with your kitten.
- Do not play if the biting becomes more aggressive. This behavior should not be encouraged.
