We adopted a beautiful linx point Siamese kitten from the humane society. About 8 months old now. Don't know anything about his background and was very scared when I met him.
We have had him for a few months now and have got him to eat food out of my hand. He absolutely adores our dog and they are inseparable. My other cats like him too, he has tons of energy and they play with him all the time.
We have discovered that food is his kryptonite. He can't resist. We can pet him and pick him up and he purrs and is very loving when he is isolated. He plays and enjoys our company. We have had in our bathroom for a few days so we could get to him and he meows at us, rubs our legs, will sit on my lap. It's just wonderful.
When we let him out into the main house (NEVER goes outside) he just runs from us. He will come up and take food out of my hand, but when I go to pet him he leaves at light speed.
I've had feral cats that wouldn't even eat they were so scared and ended up a lap cat. This one I just can't break through to. Tried everything I can think of , read tlots about it and it's just not working.
Any ideas? I love this little guy and it just hurts me to have him run from us like that.
