In my DARKEST HOUR I reached for a hand but found a Paw. Be kind to the Feline!💕🐈🐾🌹💯

This was a very informational video, I learned a few new things and was reinforced with facts I was taught and use daily. For 13 years I took care of a Feral colony of no more than 25 cats at any time. I had babies brought to my yard by their Mama"s when they were ready to ween them. It was clockwork two or three Moms had two litters a year and 2 to 3 weeks apart. I'd start petting the kittens, holding them, etc., to socialize them with humans. It was also to get them adopted and keep the colony under control. I'd trap those that decided they were just wild and free and they were Spayed/Neutered. EVERY cat has its own personality, unique traits, color, markings, wants, and needs, you name it. And they gave me much happiness and at times heartbreaking grief. Best of all I had great success in getting so many adopted each year. I also came to own 12 of my own from the different mamas, only 2 of them are with me now. If you take the time to watch your cat and pay attention to how they act and responds to things, it will become a relationship that flows along easily. I'm lucky my cats are so in tune with me, and vice versa, that sometimes it's like we can read the thoughts of one another. I am so blessed.

I just got my first kitten 2 weeks ago. Boy did I have Cats all wrong.
They are the perfect pet and friend ever. The cuddles and playing I am enjoying so much. Still have to get a name for her something besides "the cat". I fell in love 10x over again. Thank you for all the information provided, very useful.

Cats are east pets
1. Truly love them
2. Keep litter clean
3. Let them be
4. Don't over feed. But give them as much water as they want.
5. Toys and treats

We have a neighbourhood cat that makes constant visits with some of the families on the street. Our house is the first on his route. He comes to me for belly rubs and affection in general. Sits on our laps, stands on guard on our front lawn (As if he's protecting us). He gets a few treats and then he move's on. I've even seen him wait at the back of the local convenient store waiting for a tin of food which of course they give him with pleasure. This cat is the highlight of my week. I always look forward to his visits.

Open cuddles are good. They should be free to come and go. And I proved it's good because my male cat Frito is completely non-aggressive with me and "talks" at me to let me know if he wants or needs something. He had a UTI that I didnt know about but he kept meowing at me really loudly and not snuggling as much as he usually does so I took him to the vet and got him fixed up

Around 14 years ago, I was adopted by the runt of the litter from a local farm. She came up to me, sniffed my hand, and let me pick her up. She became my best friend, and a part of my family. We've been inseperable ever since.

My Mrs would tell my cat "No" and "stop" if he was doing something wrong but i always just say 'Be a good boy" and he reacts a lot more positive to me because he associates the words good boy with getting a fuss and love. Now my Mrs does it the same way as me cause she saw it works better.

Jack was one of the popular names. I named my cat Jack because I rescued him from the shelter on Christmas Eve. Short for Jack Frost! Truth be known, my grandchildren and I needed rescuing ourselves, grieving for their mother oh, my daughter who has passed away. Jack saved Our Lives, bringing so much love and joy to us all. It's funny but he has a definite different relationship to each one of us, instinctively knowing what each of us needs.

my cats both love belly rubs, my girl will lay curled up in the middle of my arms and tap my hand until I put it on her tummy, if I move my hand away, she wakes up and taps my hand until I put it back. my boy likes my hand there as well and curls around my arm and "hugs" me with his tail.

My cats were the sweetest babies. The never hissed, never swung their claws at anyone (even if i accidentally hurt them because i wasn't aware they were there), hung out with strangers, and let me bath them and clip their nails with little fuss. One even would even try to get in the bathtub with me when I took a bath and play with the water. And one loved belly rubs and would nibble if I stopped. They were siblings and good with other animals and a foster kittens that stayed with us. I never considered myself a cat person before, but they acted very similar to dog, always following me, sleeping with me, and wanting to play (to the point they were wrestling in my room at 4 am and I had to kick them out where they would cry to be back in). I always feared my next cat won't fit my lifestyle like those two did. Ps, you say they hate onion, but everytime i dropped an onion, they kept trying to eat it. . . they were weird ones.

My kitty loves her cuddles and clings onto me. She also comes and kisses me.

declawing is like cutting off human nails. trim their claws instead. like how humans trim nails. that's not too much of a work if you trully love your cats. saves you and the other cats from scratch without damaging their anatomy.

I miss my friends’ old kitty, Kitty The Kitty 😂 the part about belly rubs reminded me of her. I was there on the day they started fostering Kitty (adopted/rescued off an older relative) which was a stressful day for the poor old lady cat. But just about every time I ever saw her after she settled in at the new house, she would floop over right in front of my toes and let me rub her belly just for a minute ❤️ what a sweet ol girl she was

THANK YOU for reminding folk that laser pens are cruel and frustrating to our feline friends

I've had cats that liked tummy rubs and cats that didn't like them under any circumstances. Even the cats that liked tummy rubs liked them when THEY wanted them. My current cat likes her tummy rubbed in the process of greeting. She also has to be petted until she falls over sideways at least twice before we can go further inside. She'll then show me her belly in a particular way if she wants it rubbed, much like a dog. She was an adult when I adopted her, so I wonder if she has been around dogs. I know she did have a problem getting along with two other cats in her previous home, but I don't know the details. She is the only cat I've ever had that will accompany me on long walks, which also seems like something she might have learned from a dog. I knew a dog that had to lick himself all over before going to sleep because he learned that from the cats he grew up with.

Cats aren't subtle about their affection at all, in my opinion. Some humans are just arrogant and ignorant. My first cat saved my life from a dog attack when I was less than 5. This big Doberman got off his chain and went for me. Knocked me on my back, and bit my upper lip open bloody. I thought I was going to die, and then all of a sudden there's this yowling noise that I recognize. It's the Cat I've been bonded with since he was a kitten! He was his litter runt but grew to be a 20 lbs Tom, and in a flash of orange he's on top of this violent mongrel mutt sinking all of his claws in. He's polydactyl, so that's even more than 20! The dog goes from trying to maul me to whimpering, and howling as it runs the hell away! My cat SAVED MY LIFE! So, yeah, if you treat cats right they'll definitely let you know they love you. Without training my cat risked his life to save me. Without the promise of a treat. Cats love us more than dogs do.

Respect their personalities and they will be in the middle of you!...had 4 at once and they were great 👍👍

[hhje]

I can't say I learned much but id like to throw in with my current cat treating cats like other cats would (rubbing them with your face etc) helps build a bond very quickly in the early stages
