Burmese Cat

　　There are many reasons why cats bite. It may be because they are timid and frightened, leading to aggressive behavior, or the cat may just bite a little hard while playing. Regardless of the reason, owners should stop this behavior. Generally, cats under 6 months old can be corrected through training, but it is harder to correct cats older than 6 months. Owners should have enough patience.

　　The period from 2 to 6 months is a critical growth stage for cats. If educated well, the cat will become a sensible and polite pet. At this time, mother cats teach kittens hunting skills. Without a mother’s guidance, kittens will instinctively practice attacking moving objects, which may lead to biting people. You should promptly stop this behavior by sternly scolding the cat but not being overly harsh or hitting it. Buy some toys to train the cat to pounce on toys rather than attack you. Also, regularly trim their nails or prepare a scratching board for them. Spend at least ten minutes daily hugging and stroking your cat. This way, the cat will become affectionate. When hugging, if the cat bites you, flick its nose or forehead with your finger to immediately stop it. If it doesn’t bite, offer your hand again. Repeat this several times until it understands not to bite. Reward the cat when it behaves well, for example with treats or gentle praise. Cats are smart and will understand your intention.
