Abnormal predation often poses many potential threats. Eating randomly can easily cause foreign objects to get stuck in cats' throats, or accidentally eating food leads to food poisoning. Therefore, if a cat commits such behavior, it should be corrected in a timely manner to avoid harm to its health. Abnormal feeding behaviors in cats mainly include appetite deficiency, pica and anorexia. Cats manifest themselves as refusing to eat any food and are depressed. Sometimes cats go on hunger strikes for many days and quickly lose weight, weaken or even die. Most of this happens because of unclean food feeding locations or food utensils, such as raising cats in cat feces and urine stacks, near toilet pots or next to trash cans, and there is also unclean food in the food bowl that has not been disposed of in time.

Therefore, the effective measure to change this abnormal behavior is to use clean food utensils to feed the cat in a cleaner place away from the pile of cat feces and urine. Secondly, delayed smell in cats due to respiratory diseases can also lead to lack of appetite. In this regard, cats should be forced to eat while treating upper respiratory tract diseases. You can forcibly stuff delicious foods, such as fish, pork, etc. into the cat's mouth to stimulate the taste receptors in the mouth and cause appetite.

You can tie a ringing on the cat's neck. When the cat is forced to catch a chicken or a home free, use the sound of the ringing to remind the chicken or a rabbit to reduce losses. In addition, the ringtone can also remind the owner to stop the cat's abnormal predation behavior in time.

Place the mousetrap inverted around the chicken or rabbit cage, and use the sound of the cat touching the mousetrap when it approaches the cage to scare the cat away. This way, after 3-6 times, the cat's abnormal gluttonous food behavior can be terminated.
