Sharing stories about kittens can be great. For example, the story of a little kitten that gets lost but finally finds its way home. Kittens are often called 'pussy' in an endearing way and such stories can be suitable for little girls.
One way is to simply distract the dog. For example, when you see the dog approaching the cat with the intention to lick, call the dog's name and offer it a toy or a treat. This redirects its attention away from the cat.
Once upon a time, there was a little kitten. It was a tiny ball of fur with bright blue eyes. This little pussy loved to play with a ball of yarn. Every day it would chase the yarn around the house, pouncing on it with its little paws. It brought so much joy to the family with its playful antics.
There are many lovely and appropriate stories for little girls. For example, fairy tales like 'Cinderella'. It tells the story of a kind - hearted girl who overcomes difficulties and finally finds her happiness. It can teach little girls about kindness and perseverance.
I've seen a mother cat that had just given birth. In the first few hours, she was constantly licking her kittens all over, including their genital areas. This licking serves multiple purposes. It not only cleans the kittens but also helps in the bonding process between the mother and her babies. It's an essential part of the early care that mother cats provide to their kittens.
