Cats and dogs always fight. How can cats get along with other animals peacefully? Cats are naturally curious and always want to go over and take pictures and play when they see novel things, but other small animals in the house, such as fish, birds, hamsters, etc., cannot withstand their troubles. The two budgies I raised before were killed by the cat at home, so the cat is a natural hunter. How can cats raise other small animals in the family?

1. Cat hunting is nature, and protecting the weak is the key.

The nature of cats to hunt will make them very excited when they see living creatures and their instincts are stimulated. In time, they have no intention of eating, and they will unconsciously extend their "claws of sin" and cause the small animals to die tragically under their claws. Therefore, it is very important for the owner to protect the weak. All the small animals in the home must be locked in places where the cat cannot catch them and cannot be raised freely. The fish tank should be covered with a glass cover, the bird's cage should be hung on the top of the middle of the house, and the hamsters should be locked in the hamster cage without letting them walk around...

2. Let the cat and the small animals come into contact under the surveillance of the owner.

As the saying goes, "curiosity kills cats." The cats should be able to come into contact with these small animals, otherwise the cats will die of curiosity. Curiosity will aggravate the cats' desire to play with them. Therefore, the owner should let the cats come into contact with the small animals under close attention. Once the cats have to move their claws and hurt the small animals, they should be stopped immediately. Let the cats be familiar with the smell of the small animals first, let them know that the small animals are also family members and cannot be hurt. Then, contact them several times under the surveillance of the owner, so that the cats are completely familiar with the behaviors of the small animals, so that the cats are no longer curious, and the cats will give up the idea of ​​catching them. There is a friend who raises a horn brother. His cats also wanted to catch birds at first, but later they gradually got into more contact. The cats got used to the horn brother flying around and flapping their wings. They were no longer interested, and they became friends with the horn brother.

3. When a kitten is used, let the cat be familiar with the small animals at home.

When a cat is young, if it is not for the training of a female cat, its hunting skills will not be very good and it is not so useful to prey. Therefore, it is best to let the cat come into contact with small animals when it is young, so that the cat will not have claws.
