How to teach a kitten

It is easier to tame a kitten than an unfamiliar adult cat. As he gets used to the new home, at least once a day, carefully take the kitten in your arms, while talking to him quietly in a calm voice. Hold him for a short time (no more than five minutes) and let go where he prefers to sit.

A few days later, you can hold the kitten in your arms and sit on a chair or sofa. If the baby tries to play in a rough manner (scratching or biting), say “No!” and drop it to the floor.

Never take a kitten by the scruff of the neck! Unfortunately, this is a common method, and people who do this motivate their behavior by imitating the behavior of a mother cat. But the problem is that you are not a cat and can injure a kitten.

Correctly picking up a kitten means supporting with one hand under the breast, and with the other under the hind legs.

When the baby gets used to being in his arms, and with pleasure, you can begin to slowly walk around the room, not forgetting to talk calmly with the kitten. And at the same time, gradually begin to accustom your pet to touch, which will be needed for veterinary examinations and hygiene procedures.

Handtraining an older cat is more difficult, especially if you don’t know how it has been handled in the past. And before stroking a new cat or taking it in your arms, you need to give it time to adapt to new conditions. Sometimes it takes several weeks before a cat allows himself to be stroked or picked up. Be patient, and the purr will tell you when she is ready for close contact.

Remember that taming sessions should not be lengthy in time. They should be carried out in the most calm conditions.

After the cat allows you to hold it in your arms, you can begin to gently accustom it to hygiene procedures.
