Building a bond with your cat can seem difficult at first. Cats often come off as aloof or unloving if you don’t pay close attention to their behavior. But with some simple tricks, you’ll have lots of feline companions.

During your first few interactions with the cat let them initiate most of the touch.

Provide a Calm Environment and Stability

[{"selector":"#anim-14893f08-265c-42d4-8d0b-790cbe9af0d3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5c8214d8-3539-4c99-8ba6-ded07bad25b7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Giving a cat calm attention goes a long way for them to trust you. Loud noises and sudden movements can also startle cats easily.

Pay Attention to Them

[{"selector":"#anim-0848b138-58dc-4dfa-85e2-e43fe9a477d2","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0002cbce-5f24-466e-842f-47cbb53067fc","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] A house cat is an inherently loving animal that needs affection, attention, and love from you.

Give Treats & Gifts

[{"selector":"#anim-9cdfde0e-298e-4396-aff9-91d8bce96e0f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e55698e4-6cfd-49c8-beb9-7b33e9d93f01","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Cats love treats. While food itself is not a gift, a special treat of shrimp or tuna most certainly is. A new toy can also ingratiate you to your cat. Learn more
