How do I get my cat to be more affectionate? Other Pet Discussions
My kitten (4, almost 5 months old), besides biting me a lot, isn't really a lap cat. All my other cats (outdoor cats though) love to sit on my lap, but my indoor kitten cries to be released when I try to hold her. I'd really like her to be more affectionate, and at least let me hold her for longer than five seconds. Any ideas?Also, she is always very sweet when I wake up in the mornings and let her out of the cage she sleeps in - i.e, rubbing my leg, purring a lot, and letting me pet her.The acting like a cat with the cat is a good idea. I have a ton of experience with cats (having had tons my whole life), and I've done the things, like, when they're looking at you you're supposed to blink because staring is aggresive and the blink is kind of like a friendship sign.... I didn't think about rubbing against her like she does to me though. I might try that. Though my family will most likely think my nuts :).
