Scottish Fold (details)
Most of the folded-eared cats are very well-behaved and obedient, but some folded-eared cats are born to be saboteurs, rubbing their claws, urinating, aggressive behavior, etc.
I. What to do about the aggressive behavior of the folded cat
1. If it is a lonely old cat, you may wish to add a kitten to accompany it.
2. If the old cat is hostile to the kitten, call the kitten "the old cat's kitten", because this can create a positive connection between them.
3. If the cat is particularly nervous about someone, you might as well describe the person as a cat person, such as "this is Lily of the cat, it is Lily's cat".
4. Cats are easily affected by the owner's emotions. As the owner, you should do more exercise and activities to reduce stress, so that both you and the cat can relax.
5. Some owners will go to the pet hospital and use sedatives to control the cat's emotions, but if you just try sedatives, this is a cure for the symptoms but not the root cause; to be effective, you must rebuild the cat's behavior and supplement it with sedatives, so as to help
6. Music also has a relaxing effect on cats and can reduce its aggressive behavior.
7. When the cat is nervous, it will naturally use its claws to attack its enemies, so you should often cut the cat's nails. When cutting, it is best to hold it by another person to distract its attention.
All in all, most of the aggressive behavior of the fold cat is caused by emotional stimulation, so the owner should avoid anything that may affect the cat's mood.
Second, fold cat training tips
1. The importance of early socialization
Because the living environment of cats is relatively closed and there is less contact with the outside world, friends who keep cats must arrange enough and pleasant social opportunities for cats when they are young, so that they can live in harmony with people or other animals in a healthy state of mind.
2. Getting used to family life at an early age
From the age of two weeks, cats should be petted by their owners, several times a day, for a few minutes at a time, and gradually increase the duration and intensity of petting.
During this time, the cat will be weaned and start eating solid food.
Gradually introduce noisy vacuum cleaners, washing machines, doorbells and other daily necessities to cats to help them adapt to the home environment.
3. Don’t be too proactive
Cats are independent animals, so don't be too proactive when making friends with cats.
4. To teach students in accordance with their aptitude
Every cat has a different personality, hobbies and living habits.
5. Punishment is useless
Cats are arrogant by nature, and punishment has little effect in the process of cultivating good cats.
A patient, careful and scientific approach is sure to create a cute cat that you can be proud of.
Third, use the disgust technique to train the folded cat
Stopping a fold cat at the first signs of bad behavior can be very effective.
If you scare it away or hide, don't chase it, and don't force it back to punish it, it will only confuse and frighten it.
If possible, you can take a "replacement" strategy, replacing the refrigerator top with a cat climbing frame, a cat scratching board instead of a sofa, and an old sock knotted and used to grind teeth instead of wires.
If yelling to the fold cat or the replacement strategy doesn't work when training the fold cat, you can use the "disgust technique".
