5 måder at hjælpe din kat ligesom din nye partner

Desværre er der ingen garanti for, at din kat vil godkende dit valg af partner. Mens du muligvis har forudset dette, hvis du har et åbenlygt genert eller selektiv kæledyr, er der også mystificerende tilfælde, hvor katte simpelthen ikke kan lide bestemte mennesker. Du overbeviser måske aldrig din kat om at elske din partner så meget som du gør, men ved at have følgende råd i tankerne kan det i det mindste hjælpe din kat med at tolerere den nye person i dit liv.

1. Don't try to force an instant resolution
Det er vigtigt at undgå fristelsen til at tvinge din kat og din partner til intense interaktioner i et forsøg på at skabe en binding. Hvis din kat er bange for din partner, kommer dyret kun ud af disse håndhævede forbindelser, der føler sig mere bange. Din partner kan også se mere aggressiv opførsel (som hvisse og knurrende), fordi katten vil føle sig fanget. Forklar alle dine ideer og motiver til din partner, så det er klart, at du heller ikke demonstrerer mistillid!

2. Swap scents
Smells are very important to cats, and your pet may become more comfortable with the presence of your partner if you place items of your partner's clothing around the home (when your partner isn't standing in front of the cat). The scent may slowly become less threatening, and your cat may be less intimidated by your partner's presence as a result. Interestingly, you can also try putting some of your cat's scent on your partner. If you gently rub some of your partner's clothes on scent glands near the cat's mouth, pheromones will be transferred. Your cat deliberately transfers these pheromones onto people and objects in times of relaxation, so you may be able to trick your suspicious pet into feeling more comfortable around your partner.

3. Create safe spaces
Your cat will find it easier to deal with the discomfort felt around your partner if there are plenty of places to hide. Comfortable beds, small spaces inside cat trees and even cardboard boxes provide sanctuary, and your cat is more likely to come to terms with your partner's presence if an escape route is always available. 4. Tilbud bestikkelse
If your cat comes to see your partner as someone who brings enjoyable items, trust may slowly develop. For example, your partner might try putting a single treat in your cat's food (before walking away) each time they meet, or you may even try having your partner prepare the cat's food at mealtimes. Toys can also make effective bribes for particularly playful cats, especially if the toys contain catnip (for those cats that like catnip).

5. Suggest play sessions
In addition to giving the cat toys to play with, your partner can try playing games with your cat. The key is to play from a safe distance, using a fun toy dangled at the end of the rope. A younger or more active cat will find this type of game hard to resist, and repeated sessions can help to lessen feelings of fear or hostility in your pet.
