Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2003How can you tell.....
How can you tell when a cat trusts you? Nath > How can you tell when a cat trusts you? > > Nath he puts his gun down ? astrog :-) He will give you his pin number (but almost never to the main account). And if he walks around while you are on his shoulders, that's a good sign. > How can you tell when a cat trusts you? > > Nath > How can you tell when a cat trusts you? They sleep on your head. Tara That happens to me and my wife. Sometimes one of them just puts his paw on my face and fall asleep. : -) > > How can you tell when a cat trusts you? > > They sleep on your head. > > Tara On Wed, 25 Jun 2003 20:37:13 +1000, "The Charmed One [Aka: Nat]" <nat2sim@yahoo.com.au> tossed a golden coin into a well and made a fervent wish: >How can you tell when a cat trusts you? > >Nath When you can hold them over water without a single instinctual squirm. Ceaite was on the verge of falling into the tub while I was taking a bath (she usually walks around and plays hide 'n seek and tag behind the shower curtain; she lives in the tub when no one's using it), so I picked her up to move onto the floor. Last time this happened, much panic and mild scratches occured. This time, utterly calm, tail wagging slowly and happily curling in the water, and much purring. She just sat down beside the tub once I let her down and cleaned herself. Now that's a trusting cat!

I'd say so. My cat runs if I rattle a plastic bag. She is getting better but she's been her for almost 10 months and still gets spooked. I can only imagine what her life was like before. On the other hand, 2 of the 4 kittens I foster will kind of cling with their nails when I try to set them down from a standing position...but two of them don't at all. They almost go limp while I bend down to set them on the floor. Not sure if it's trust or ignorance (having not fallen yet <g>). AG One of ours sits on my stomach when I take a bath. I have a big stomach so maybe there isn't so much trust involved. Sorry for the unpleasant mental image. : -) > On Wed, 25 Jun 2003 20:37:13 +1000, "The Charmed One [Aka: Nat]" > <nat2sim@yahoo.com.au> tossed a golden coin into a well and made a [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > prickme2@_NO_SPAM_hotmail.com > http://glyphworks.crimsonblog.com | One of ours sits on my stomach | when I take a bath.

When he gets ready to jump off my lap he scrunches down, digs his rear claws into me and then the rocket booster goes off and he makes his jumb. I don't know why, but Handsome, the elder of the 2 doesn't have very sharp claws and doesn't dig them in when he wants down. YOUCH! :) Mark Zimmerman * Chicago To reply remove "nospam" Handsome is a very cool name for a cat. > >Be careful that you don't splash or move...scraaatch...ouch! > >:-) [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > To reply remove "nospam" |
