If you see a cat bringing back a dead mouse, grab it immediately. If a cat wants to eat a dead mouse, hit the cat's mouth lightly with a stick. After a few hours, put the dead mouse next to the cat's mouth. If the cat still wants to eat, hit it in the mouth again and reprimand it severely. After several times of training, when the cat sees a dead mouse, it will trigger a conditioned reflex of being punished and will not dare to eat it.

Notes on training Himalayan cats not to eat dead mice:

1. Start training from an early age. Kittens are easier to train than adult cats. Don't miss the growth process of kittens, otherwise they will become "if you don't train them when you are young, you will become a fool".

2. Corporal punishment must not be practiced. If the cat is hit casually, it will create a sense of fear in the owner, and then develop a servile character. Because cats are much smaller than humans, they are more likely to be injured if they are hit.
