  4. At the beginning of the beginning, it should be placed in a shielding point, otherwise some female cats hate others to move his kitten very much. Because the transition is afraid that outsiders will take their children away, they will protect their children in the most extreme way. At this time The cat is in a state of severe nervousness, and is particularly afraid that other creatures will harm their kittens, so they eat the kitten and mistakenly think that they are protecting their children. In fact, they do not know that they have done stupid things. The situation of being frightened by others will repeat the same mistakes, so when the cat has a cub, you must not be frightened. He has raised cats from a small family and heard that someone else's cats eat their own cubs, so I have seen some analyzing these these these. The reason for the reasons, just talk about it.

  5. Because the cat protector
    The taste of the kitten with a stranger
    S sometimes it can not distinguish its own child
    to eat

    You can let others watch it when you eat
