The sooner you purchase all the accessories necessary for your cat's life in an apartment, the faster the animal will get used to them.
This means that with the appearance of a kitten in the house there should be a litter box, a bowl and a scratching post. And everything else is optional.
Buying accessories is the easiest thing. You also need to teach your pet to use them.
Here are some tips to help your cat get the hang of using a nail sharpener faster.
Where to start
1. Choose a place where your pet wants to sharpen its claws, but in a way that it does not disturb anyone.
2. Consider the character and characteristics of your four-legged friend's breed. The service life of the material and whether your cat will like it depend on this.
Some people like a soft surface, while others prefer rougher materials.
3. And if there are several cats living in the house, then one scratching post may not be enough.
How to train a cat
First, treat the surface with valerian to arouse the cat's interest.
Treat the furniture with a repellent so that the animal is forced to find a new place to have fun.
Be sure to praise your pet and reward him every time he approaches the “projectile”.
However, do not punish the cat or remove the scratching post if the animal cannot understand what you want from it.
It will take time for your pet to master this science.
