Little kittens very often, playing, do claws serious harm not only to an upholstery of upholstered furniture or wall-paper in the apartment, but also to people who accidentally get to "combat zone". Therefore the kitten since childhood needs to be accustomed to safer behavior.
Certainly, completely to disaccustom a kitten to be scratched very difficult, but, at least, it is possible to try to reduce the number of the scratches which are daily got by you and your members of household during the game with a kitten.
- One of the simplest options consists in schooling of a kitten to a regular hairstyle of claws. In principle, many owners of cats approximately every three weeks cut to the pets the growing sharp tip of a claw. Such simple procedure will save all members of household from accidental scratches.
- To disaccustom a kitten to be scratched, you should not take draconian measures in the form of corporal punishments. It is necessary to accustom a kitten to a word it "is impossible". Any cat has to know this word from the earliest age. In order that the team "is impossible" took on a kitten at least some effect, it is necessary to tell this word sharply and loudly – practically with the same intonation with which owners of dogs speak to the pets "faugh!".
- After you told a kitten it "is impossible", it is necessary to switch at once attention of an animal to some toy – so you will be able to distract it from thoughts of a tsarapaniye. As a result the logical chain has to be created: the cat will understand that hands or the owner's legs – not the toy, is better to play something rustling, ringing or sliding. By the way, take care of that the kitten had enough toys – then the animal will always know, than to occupy itself. If the kitten uses you as a tree for a lasagna – make concessions better and buy to it the real tree for a lasagna. Today in many pet-shops the convenient trees for a lasagna representing the real cat's complexes with columns, lodges, hammocks, regiments are on sale. If in your house there is such tree, the kitten will always find, than to be engaged: about a surface of a tree it is possible to sharpen claws, and climbing on a construction top, the kitten will spend excess energy.
- If the kitten became angry outright, and the misfortune tries on you to bite or scratch, it is necessary to hiss on him – it is necessary to hiss until the cat is not frightened and will not lag behind. It is desirable to offer after that it something tasty, such treat will become a reconciliation symbol.
