Exotic Shorthair Cat

　　1. Use voice to stop it: When the pounces on your hands or feet, the quickest way to stop it is to sternly scold it with a simple word like "no," so the cat can remember it more easily.

　　2. Use actions to stop it: Like a with kittens, gently grasp the loose skin on the back of its neck and gently press it to the ground, maintaining this for several to more than ten seconds. This signals to the kitten that you are its "mother" with absolute authority. Repeating this will help the cat stop attacking you. However, this method is more suitable for kittens, not for headstrong adult cats.

　　3. Use toys to attract it: When the cat pounces on you, bring out prepared toys to attract its attention, such as a teaser wand, leather mouse, or similar little things. Teach it to play with toys instead of your hands. Playing with toys enhances interaction between owner and cat, greatly improving their bond and cultivating the cat's hunting and exercise abilities.

　　4. Don’t be stingy with praise: The power of praise is always greater than criticism. Cats are very sensitive to human emotional changes. A good atmosphere and joyful mood when praising encourages them greatly. When your cat does well, be sure to smile, gently pet it, and kindly praise it. It will strive to do even better next time.

　　5. Hug for ten minutes every day: Spend at least ten minutes daily hugging and petting your cat, letting it know how much you love it. Teach it to enjoy the warmth of hugs and proper ways to express love. Only children who live in love are healthy and confident children.
