sheep chasing kitten

My 2 dogs know that sheep are not to play with. My adult cat wouldn't demean herself by looking at a sheep. But how do I train my 3 month old kitten not to chase sheep?

There are loads of hill sheep out on the roads where we live, and a couple came up our drive. Pint sized Mungo chased them down the drive and started up the road, until I managed to distract his attention. Why couldn't the silly ewes stand their ground and stamp a foot or two! The chickens evicted him in no uncertain terms, so surely a sheep could make more of a stand. It did look funny though.

Good for Mungo. His opinion of hill sheep is the same as mine. Skittery auld, manky, ked ridden pests.

If he can get one through the catflap stick it in the freezer.
