Nowadays, most domestic pet cats live a life of eating to open their mouths and clothes to stretch their hands, but some instincts have been seriously degraded, such as catching mice. In the absence of survival pressure, cats as pets are reluctant to catch big dirty and fierce mice. But if there is a rat infestation in your house one day, you need the cat to come forward to solve the problem for you. Keeping soldiers for thousands of days and using soldiers for a while, owners may wish to train cats more in peacetime.

1. Step by step, let the cat know the enemy

If the cat is too small, it will not only fail to catch mice, but also After the mouse is killed, when the bones and legs of the cat's body develop well, you can start training the cat to catch mice. At the beginning of training cats to catch mice, the requirements should not be too harsh, and the training should be carried out from easy to difficult. The owner can catch one with a rat trap first, and then tie the rat with iron wire and throw it in front of the cat to let it play, but it is best not to let it eat. There are too many bacteria on the rat, which will easily make the cat sick. After a long time, the cat will take the initiative to catch the mouse instead of eating it.

Second, closed training deepens the instinct

After the cat is familiar with the mouse, the mouse and the cat can be placed in the same closed environment to let the cat Hang out with mice on an empty stomach. First let the cat learn how to chase mice, and then in the actual process of chasing and catching, slowly let the cat learn how to ambush, sneak up, jump to catch mice. With the extension of training time, the training environment space can be appropriately increased, and some obstacles can be set up in the training space, so that pet cats can try the real hunting fun, and further improve the cat scratching ability of mice.

3. Follow the mother cat to teach the kitten

When the cat has a certain hunting ability, you can put the cat and mouse in the yard to catch Catch training. At the beginning, you should imitate the mother cat's method to limit the mouse's motor ability (such as breaking a leg), then let the kitten catch the mouse, and slowly restore the mouse's movement to improve the cat's catching difficulty until the cat can catch the mouse. Successfully catching the mouse is a success.

It should be noted that mice often carry a lot of parasites and infectious bacteria. Cats must not eat mice. The most important thing is to be able to act as a deterrent, so that no rats in the home are afraid to approach.
