    So you're telling me that in order to impress a cat, I need to:
    1. Spray on perfume
    2. Play hard to get
    3. Hold out my hand strategically
    4. Demonstrate physical intimacy
    5. But also respect their physical boundaries
    6. Seduce them with my eyes
    7. Be fun and playful
    8. Pay for their dinner

      Was feeding some street kittens who were scared of me. Did it pretty regularly, sort of. One day I came and this time they were literally starving (fewer people are feeding street cats during Covid). Funny thing is, now I'm treated as a safe human. They don't bother keeping their distance at all. So, I guess they can change their mind, too ❤ But I agree with not forcing them to like you. I was just giving them some grub.

I just feed them and never expecting them to approach me and ever let me touch them, but after a month or two they knew I'm the food guy. They wait for me and yell when they see me (hopefully they are not insulting me for being late sometimes lol). At first they looked very suspicious of me, even hiss at me, but now they are relaxed about me being around them, a couple of them even let me pet them. If you can win the trust of a feral cat I think nothing is impossible for you in this life.
      Winning the trust of a non-feral is a million times easier. I wouldn't say if a cat denies you you should give up, I think every cat has its key, sometimes it might be a hard key to obtain but never impossible.

      @katgenn-winkler1754 3 года назад +16

      Lol. True to an extent but my favorite cat memory was when I noticed an abandoned kitten around my house that hissed and ran from me no matter how carefully I wooed him with food and treats. I kept my eye out for him and he finally got so weak I was able to scoop him up because he could no longer run away. I nursed him back to health. He kept snarling and hissing at me during that time even though he let me feed, pet and wash him up. It took a long time for him to learn to purr. He would eventually go through a phase where he hissed at me while cuddling me before he finally.learned to actually purr. 😂
      We became mama and child kitty. He slept with me and stayed glued to me for years. His name was Timothy. So you CAN get a kitty to come around with patience and love.
      Worth it. 😻🥰

      @ddlc_monika 3 года назад +6

      most of it really comes down to reading body language and respecting it, yeah.
      Also those two petting zones are bullshit, what you instead want to go for is long strokes starting from the head, under the ears, over the whole body down to the tail and, here's the kicker, only do it that way around. ALWAYS stroke in fur direction, NEVER against it like you would a dog. Reason being, cats spend a lot of time getting their fur clean and nice like that so don't ruin it.
      You can tell he's an amateur by where the cat sat and how it still bit him at the end. I'd be sitting there cross legged to make the kind of confined space boxes naturally make, cats will jump in if they want affection and this goes on for multiple hours.
      Another thing I noticed is that cats want to hang out with you more if you come regularily but arent their owner. they know to use chances.

    Man I remember my old cat named Lucy, she was more of a wild animal at first but she slowly just started to trust us cause her mother started hissing at her (obviously Lucy still wanted to keep close to her but it didn't work). We couldn't approach her within a meter or two, heck we couldn't even breathe in her way cause she'd ran away.
    But one day, a month or 2 after she started visiting us with her mother and a few weeks after her mother started to drift away from her... I came back home, I sat outside on the balcony, she jumped on the balcony and then she just curled up on my lap.
    I don't know why did she do that cause the previous day she was the same but I didn't think much of it, I was so damn excited.
    Ever since then she was really cuddly but only with us she didn't approach or accept anyone new, would take them a few visits to gain her trust.
    We always let her in the house at night cause the other cats would've attacked her and even due to my father not accepting that at first he eventually warmed up to her.
    Unfortunately she died very young, was a bit over 1 year old, I'll never forget her and how she accepted us. Sorry for the long ass comment just got reminded of her due to the topic.

      I have had four that have been great with this, but one of my little men doesn’t respond to the slow blink either. I keep trying, but nope, absolutely nothin’. There are plenty of other methods to try. A warm comfy bed and lots of rubs/scratches never go astray. Most importantly, keep some yummy treats handy. 🐟🍽🙏🏼🤪🤣 Good luck and enjoy your baby! ♥️

Misty would jump on bed, bonk me with head and wait for me to purr and then purrr also😻Misty was my great aunt's kitty. She was meanie, but we still loved her. I would brush Misty and she loved it, but when she would bite my aunt at night in hand, next day I would ignore her completely. Misty would throw herself in front my feet showing she wants brush but I would just step over and walk away. In time Misty became more mellow and lovey...

I left to the army and my mom took the cat which passed away around 13 years old. ok so when I was young I forgot to feed my kitten for half a day. about 3 months old. she killed a bird and ate it, pretty much saying that she don't need my petty hand outs. and over the years I will admit we would forget to feed her sometimes and yeah she would kill a bird and not miss a meal

    1 year on & it’s the complete opposite. Tilly is always arms length away, only when she wants food will she show me affection by head butting me, rubbing herself against my arm & lastly be very comfortable/relaxed in my company.
    Im still rewarded by her laying at the end of my bed at night.
    The only change I made was introducing a kitten aged 3 months old. Tilly was 8 months old at the time, they both love pouncing on each other & nose touching. Occasionally they sleep very close together.
    I can’t understand where it all went wrong! How have I now ended up with a timid cat indoors yet outside she will happily interact with me.

    I've had cats since I was a kid, and most people doesnt understand cats and just expects them to be like dogs- its honestly so stupid. Cats are much more than that. They are like this introverted friend who likes to have his space but still loves you deep down. Also they have different personalities. Ive had many cats and each one had its own individual preference and personality. Currently I have a cute cat who loves to cuddle and sleep with me . She is like my little sister, she would complain about her food and asks for treats, makes silly fights too. I love dogs too but dog owners sometimes get on my nerves when they talk about cats like that

    I have to say.. I love when cats have their unique and sometimes not so for humans as easy seen attitudes..
    (English is not my native language)
    Because I love to let them be and still see how they interact with me in their best way possible and me interacting with them but still respecting their need for alonetime or whatever they need as a cat haha
    I have learned the more you let them just be.. The more they feel comfortable with your quirks as a human
    But I wrote this in a very general way
    It can mean a lot.. I know a cat that you can hold like a baby for an hour and is very calm and friendly.. Because it's just happy to go outside the whole day and having fresh food when it comes home
    Then I know cats that need lots of alone time and don't like being so much touched but always are there for you when you cry and ready for a cuddle
    And the cat of my aunts house hates being lifted up and carried around.. But she let's my cousin do so..and my cousin always opens the door when she comes at night home.. At any time.. While the other don't let her out anymore or don't open the door till the morning

    I've been taking care of my roomates cat while they're away for a couple months, and we've bonded a lot, but he always seemed bored, even before my roomate left. Well he hates when I leave so today I decided to take him with me in the car on a 25ish minute drive through errand. He was scared at first and I was about to abort but he climbed into my lap and started looking out the window and totally calmed down. I think it was intense for him but ultimately I think he loved it! He was totally chill by the time we were on our way back, and since then he definitely doesn't seem bored and our bond has pretty clearly gotten stronger! Just a tip!

      @Nunya Business That is a great idea!
      ​@Private C I think you need to do it gradually and consistently. Like when you're about to go out the door, make eye contact and say "I'll be back". After a few seconds, come back. Repeat the process, gradually adding seconds, then minutes, and hours. And greet them when you enter, "I'm back". They'll learn that you're not abandoning them & you'll eventually come back, and they'll be the first to know when you're back (even if they just glance at you then proceed to ignoring you). I'm not sure if it will work though.
      I don't actually have a cat but if I do (or any other pet), I'll incorporate this into a routine 😊

    I probably do most of this stuff unknowingly. Only met a few cats that didnt like me and they were all outdoor farm cats grizzled and old. But whenever I meet a new cat indoors they usually vibe with me pretty well. A friend had adopted an old cat at deaths door that didnt like people very much. I just walked up looked them in the eyes for a second and sat down nearby. They were laying down and eventually stopped looking me up and down, at which point I just raised my hand palm down, they sniffed, I pet and they purred. Apparently the only other person that was able to do that was my friend after weeks of earning trust. They probably placed a lot of the ground work for me but within 5 minutes I had made a new friend. I always credit it toward being confident, calm and understand that you are a giant to them. Dont be scared, but dont go in cocky either. Have respect for them and theyll have some respect toward you.

    I'm watching this with my cat, when she saw the laser pointer she runs up to the screen, then she saw the treats she looks back at me and meows. Thanks, now I have to go buy her some treats

      @Mia Smith yeah, it's the best! I even taught mine how to do a "high five" and "low five".
      I really miss her.

      @@bluediner967 I had to have her put down exactly 2 months ago. She got acutely ill and had to be put down. Or, it was rather acute because she finally showed symptoms of not being well.
      Turned out her bone marrow had completely shut down and stopped producing both white and red blood cells. She had also appearently developed an autoimmune disorder that attacked her remsining red blood cells. Her blood values were so bad that she had no immune system left, and her red blood cell count was so low that the vet said she'd be uncobcious if it had been acute (like a blood loss).
      There was nothing I could do to make her better, and because she was in so much discomfort and pain, I decided to let her go. So I sat with her and stroked her body as the vet gave her the final injection (after first administering her painkillers). She was 15-16 years old, and I was fortunate enough to have her for almost 12 years (since right before I turned 10). She was incredibly loyal and the best cat I could've asked for.

    The 4 year old Cat I rescued 3 days ago is hiding under the couch again today. She comes out after I go to bed and eats and plays. She used her new pine pellets litter box on day 2. I’m grateful for that.
