Cuddling, petting and what not
So Erwin has been in his new home for a week!
Having read so much about the cuddly, friendly nature of MCs I thought I might ask: do your kittens enjoy you petting them?
I'm a little worried as I've noticed that Erwin avoids contact. He rarely lets me rub his belly (when he does let me, he purrs though) and he NEVER ever lets me pet his head.
He's a very energetic kitten, he plays all the time and does want to be around me - he usually follows me wherever I go. I'm kinda worried that, being deaf, he has associated my hands with something negative, although I cannot think of something I did that would lead to that. Or maybe it's a matter of getting used to human contact? I realize that when he was at the cattery he was more used to playing and sleeping with his brothers and sisters and the rest of the cats there, so maybe he just needs time.
Have you had similar reactions from kittens?
