Instruction
1. Before accustoming a kitten to a bowl, it is necessary to remember that it is necessary to pass from maternal milk to more adult food gradually. In other words, even if the kitten very much would like to try crude meat, weak jaws will not be able just to cope with rigid pieces. Therefore selection of food is given not smaller value, than to the process of schooling. It is the simplest to begin with semi-fluid products, such as semolina porridge or meat from the can food intended for babies.
2. To teach a kitten is it is possible in two ways. The first is more humane, for him it is necessary to dunk a finger into contents of a bowl and to suggest a kitten to lick it. Some owners suit a peculiar path for an animal, spreading a part of products from a bowl on a floor. By means of several trainings the kitten realizes that the most tasty is in a bowl and begins to drink up from it. In process of acquisition of this skill the density of products changes from consistence of porridge to more dense forcemeat. If the kitten is initially accustomed to a factory forage, then it is necessary to begin not with dry pieces. Though they are also considered as softer in comparison with a forage for adult cats, it is too difficult to kitten to understand how all this needs to be gnawed.
3. The second way is connected with some violence over the cat's personality. To explain to a kitten that want from him, it is necessary to smear to him a nose with a product from a bowl. It is possible to make it a finger or just to dip a kitten a muzzle into food. At first he will lick a muzzle, but gradually will understand what is it is necessary from a bowl. The kitten is more senior, the it is less at owners of the problems connected with schooling to a bowl.
