Trying to deal with aggressive kitten problems is something that many pet owners find frustrating. You may have tried several different ways to solve these cat behavior problems, but none of them have succeeded.
Here are three common aggressive kitten problems and tips on how you can solve them quicker and with a lot less frustration then you are currently experiencing.
First of all, one of the most common causes of aggressive kittens is the lack of early handling by people. This is often seen in kittens who are rescued from the wild.
To overcome this lack of early handling you simply have to build up your cat's tolerance of being handled. You can do this by petting it for a few minutes every day and slowly adding time to the petting sessions.
Kittens that are raised exclusively by humans can also experience behavior problems as well. This is often seen with kittens who do not know how to guard their teeth when playing, which they usually learn by playing with their mother and other kittens.
This problem can be solved by immediately correcting your kitten when they do bite you. This can be done by immediately stopping play with them and even isolating them in a room for 10-15 minutes.
A third common aggressive kitten problem is the biting of toes. Many people experience kittens that nibble at your toes. While this might be caused by several things, the most common cause is boredom.
This behavior problem is the easiest one to solve, because it often involves just giving your kittens more toys to play with. You might even look into getting some electronic interactive toys to keep them entertained.
Consistency on your part about what type of behavior is expected from your kitten, can help your kitten behave better. This is because they absolutely know without a doubt what type of behavior is tolerated and what type is not.
