How to Help a Shy Scared Kitten | First Days Home!
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 06. 2017
- Timid Burmese kitten, Luna, would only run from us and hide behind the toilet during her first days home. I started hand feeding her to help her get over her fear and help her start trusting human hands. Eventually she would climb into my lap while I fed her. Today she is still shy with strangers but very friendly and social to everyone in our household. =^..^=
Cute!

All you need is good food, the universal language for all.
K Wan at the end of the day cats don’t care about humans and only care for the food and shelter they provide
Cats “bond” is one of survival and efficiency
@@No1reallydies Lmao that's literally nothing but you spurting bullshit.
ozone! It’s not friend dogs and cats are very different look it up , dogs are domesticated while cats are still wild for the most part. If you let a cat do what it truly wants it will leave go do what it wants than come back for an easy meal and place to sleep. Dogs on the other hand usually grow a bond with the owner and wouldn’t leave the same room as it .
@@No1reallydies That is wrong. A lot of cats hate going outside and would rather stay in. If you think that cats don't bond with their owners then you have never had a cat before. As someone who's had a cat for most of my life it's obvious that the bond isn't about food.
@@No1reallydies tell that to my cat who I wake up and move over multiple times every day but he still refuses to sleep anywhere other than on top of me. Sounds like someone's never had a cat before or was a boring owner
Building a cats trust is hard, but it’s worth it 👏🏻👏🏻

I still remember the first time I met my cat.
I put some food in my hand.
He smell it.
He get excited.
He opens his mouth. Ahhhhmu!
He bites my hand.
╮( ̄▽ ̄"")╭
After that I get the shot from the clinic.
I love my cat.
Why'd you need a shot?
Anna Lynn possible infection or disease coming from animals
E.g rabies
@@nightranger9555 rabies isnt careable from a shot like that only if your given one before that it would just be to stop a infection but you can do that by washing the spot and rubbing alchol i know i grew up with cats and dogs i had one dog almost bite my eye out he got the bag right under my eye i cried got over it and didnt go anywhere and i was like 6

Luna is so cute and you're such a good Mom and so patient with her. Hope she got better with her shyness.
Thanks! Yes, she is a very affectionate cat that enjoys snuggling and being held now.
Its not really the shyness. Its the anxiety the kitten is feeling
You know, we got a shy cat a few days ago. We decided to name her Luna. We had no knowledge of this video, it's just a crazy coincidence. Did you name her Luna because her fur is about the same color as Luna Lovegood's hair from the Harry Potter series? My mom decided on the name because both the character and cat are quite sweet.

Food always works. Also pet her very gently.
Really reminds me of my first cat. She was so timid and shy, and wouldnt come out of her corner for ages. Then when she felt comfortable, she was the most social, and affectionate cat who wouldnt leave me alone!
Bryan Bryan Same. Books can't be judged by the cover.
'cute' does not even BEGIN to describe this kitten and its features. We need more intense, bolder, more powerful words to describe it!

The way to a kitten's heart is through its stomach. They have huge appetites. :-)
Bless you for your patience with this adorable wee one. I'm glad she has come out of her shell.
Wrong. The way to a cat heart is respect. And love. Not food. Food is just a way to earn their trust. Dogs are probably more inclined to respond you by more material things like food or cuddles. Cats are more independent and "honest" in that way.
George R dogs recognize respect too-- you can see the differemce if theyre on a walk, if they drag the owner along or trot at their side
Beautiful kitten. I'm sure she is even more beautiful now!
First day I brought my kitten home he went straight to the kitchen, found his plate, grabbed a bite. He looked around the house very enthusiastically. Then, hours later he fell asleep right on my chest, he was such a cutie. 5 years later he still is. And still comes to my chest in the early morning and purrs like there will be no tomorrow 🥰
Yes, another crazy cat lady here 😻
Just bought a cat, just keeps hiding under the bed. Comes out for food and then goes back in. Any advice?
@@addya4011 I just got my kitten today and she’s currently under the bed right now 😭😭
@@taliasworld8084mine comes out, lays next to us too and plays with us - too cute. It’s taken 2 weeks to get to this stage.
I’d say just be patient, don’t force to touch or play with your kitten, always stay positive towards it and try get your kitten to play but don’t be forceful. Once it feels comfortable it’ll come to you. Just be patient towards it. It’ll come around eventually once it feels comfortable and trusts you. It just takes little bit of time. If it’s hiding for now - let it. It’s just scared at the moment.
After a new kitten has gotten used to my (palm-up, fingers together) hand being close, I usually rub one of their cheeks with a finger, along the jawline. In most cases, they start rubbing back, and that seems to reduce their stress.
Karl Nemo yeah because you activate it’s purr which is designed to slow a cats heart rate down from what I’ve read and observed from my own
Adorable. Hope shes happy now
Yes, she is a happy cat now, and we feel so lucky to have her as a part of our family :)

Being a person that has socialized several fearful and even feral cats I have to add that the food approach shown here with this kitten was good, but I believe should always be accompanied by talking to the cat in a soft, sweet voice. This really helps to calm those little ones, especially, but can help to calm older cats also. I have socialized feral cats by placing food outside, then sitting quietly a good distance away, just watching them eat. Then, each day I bring food and move my chair a little closer until eventually you are sitting right next to them. I do not try to touch them for a long time. Patience is the key. They come to associate you with good things (food) and not as a threat.

I had a similiar problem with my cat when I first adopted him. First, I put a cat bed on my lap, then I put him on the bed and petted him until he wanted to jump off and go back under my bed. Then, I left food out overnight. By day three, he was rubbing his head against me. It was frustrating at first, but he came around. It's been almost two years now. This brings back memories.

The food was only a means to get the kitten close enough to realize it can trust her.
The animal world's version of sex!!!!😭
Had a similar situation with a two year old lost kitty. She wanted to hide at first when I found her near my home. But after giving her snacks and petting her in hard to get corners it was like a switch went off. She started to become really friendly and even laid in my lap after a 24 hour period. After that we found her owners. Regret not keeping her but at least she got home.

Aww that's adorable

Jake Holm, I was able to take into my apartment, a Feral Mama Cat. I named her, Mona. She had 2 litters of kittens in my bedroom closet. I kept 1 gorgeous gray male from her 1st litter, named him Petey. I was able to only be their Mom for 8 years. Had to re-home them, bc got priced out of my apartment. New place only allows 1 pet. Anyway, Miss Mona, and her son, Petey got neutered/spayed after the 2nd litter. Mona, herself never completely tamed from Feral to normal. But, I think all 4 of my Cats were basically happy, living w/me and each other. I miss Ginger, who died of old age, before I was forced out of that place. Mona, hopefully still lives (I hope) w/a former neighbor. Petey was w/same woman. After a year, woman became unstable, and since I still have my 18 year old male Cat, I couldn’t take Petey in, bc management wouldn’t let me. Haven’t seen or heard about either of them since that upsetting day, but I still really miss Mona and Petey. My Bennyman Cat is a character. I’m grateful that I’m allowed to keep him with me.
Just wanted to tell you about my little Feral girl, Mona. Hope I didn’t bore you...
Gosh she’s beautiful.
Storytime: A few years ago my family and me adopted two cats, a female and her brother out of animal shelter, both just a few months old. Her brother was very fast trusting to us and cuddled a lot but the femals cat was so scared, she hid under the sofa and wouldn't come out. And if she did and we did as much as to look in her direction, she would run straight back.
Nothing helped, we tried to talk to her, play with her... she was too scared. Then it was feeding time and as soon as she smelled the food, she came out and hesitantly stalked towards the feeding dish, while we pretended not to see her.
As soon as she ate, she lost her fear and even pushed her brother (who was already biger than her) aside to also eat his food.
Afterwards she even played with us and let us pat her.
Now we have both of them for a few years and they feel so comfortable with us, even if they kinda kept some of their habits. The male cat is fearless and cuddly, the female is still easily scared but as soon as she gets to eat she is not someone to be trifled with. :)
Magrat Knoblauch stress eating? No actually hah you women and your food talk. Yeah that fits
NabilRider555 I don't know whether it was stress eating or not - I just know that food has always been an important part in my cats life afterwards 😊
Magrat Knoblauch well adjusting to something is a little hard so you might get stressed. If eating is the only thing you can think of while being stressed then it is stress eating
Then I guess you're right, it was probably stress eating. Anyway, she seemed to have found liking at eating since it's still one of her main hobbies :3
I love your story... I adopted an 8 week old female kitten from the shelter a few days ago. Tonight will make the 4th night and she still is hiding. She started using her litter box the day I brought her home as well as her food and water dishes in my kitchen. The litter box is in my bedroom and she’ll run from my closet to under the bed, I sing to her, I talk to her but I can’t get her to come out of hiding. My heart is broken because all I want to do is snuggle and love her. I’m not able to get her from under the bed, as I have Stage lll Ovarian Cancer and treatment has ruined my joints. All I want to do is love her...any suggestions anyone? Ty for listening, joany 🦋

Come on now. I like cats, but they’re born killers. It doesn’t make them that much different from us. People with such resentment and self loathing towards humankind because of a few rotten apples are just stupid as well as misguided. If it wasn’t for some of us, there would be a few extinct cats already.

What's with cats and toilets
Toilet water is like soda to them. How i know ? I used to be a cat, now I'm a Windex bottle
Windex from the 1990s hahaa
Small space, dim, and the toilet and floor are cool.
They like to take selfies there, just like any other pussies.
Id say it could be the coolness of the tiles, my cats love to lay on the bathroom floor on hot days
Don’t you love when CZcams recommends these gems years later all at once to everyone
I have burmese cat too. Love these creatures very much! They are so intelligent cute and friendly... like dogs)))
My kitten was such a little devil when we brought him home. He was climbing the curtains and running round mad 😂😂 but he went to sleep on me that night, he’s 1 now and he’s still really hyper. 😂💕
Beautiful kitty ❤️👍
Its a beautiful thing to see the trust the owner is slowly gaining, one piece of food at a time lol
You're so patient. Beautiful cat.
Luna looks like such a sweet and talkative kitten
Maybe my kitten is different but he just warmed up to me as soon as I started petting him. He also didn’t hide when I brought him to my room. He’s a good boi
Yeah honestly this cat is trash
Depends on the cat. Some have been traumatized before adoption.
@Joel Smith I like other cats but this one's a jerk
When my husband and I adopted two sister cats they hid behind the toilet for awhile. We gave them time and was very patient. Cats take time. Love your video. Very caring and nurturing.
Боялся телефоном пошевелить пока смотрел видео, чтобы котёнка не испугать:-)
if you really like animals and especially cats, don't buy them, save them.
But you need to buy them in order to save them. Or else that would be stealing 😂
SAL3M I’m sure they meant by adopting them
Cats aren't cosmetic products, people who buy them from pet stores or breeders should be ashamed.

God bless my beautiful blue eyed Himalayan Persians soul. He died 2 years ago and I'm still heart broken but anyways he was extremely shy and a very scary cat even after owning him for 4 years.
