2.environmental pressure: Stress reactions caused by unfamiliar environments accounted for 28%, 83% of which occurred in female cats that were bred for the first time.
3.mate preference: Recent research shows that cats can identify genetic compatibility through smell, and about 40% of female cats will actively reject unmatched male cats.
3. Comparison table of practical solutions
| method | Applicable scenarios | success rate | Things to note |
|---|---|---|---|
| scent exchange | Initial rejection | 68% | Need to be done 3 days in advance |
| Environmental transformation | stress response | 72% | Maintain a semi-dark environment |
| Nutritional supplements | Hormone deficiency | 55% | Professional veterinary guidance required |
| Human assistance | stubborn rejection | 90% | There is a certain risk |
