I adopted two cats at the end of June, one kitten (female), one about six months old (male). They were in the same foster home. Since I brought them home, the kitten had never really warmed up to me. She will cuddle with me when I’m in bed and let me pet her then, but otherwise she runs away when I come near her. I have tried treats (which she loves and will beg for) and she still won’t come near me. She doesn’t act like she’s afraid of me. She just wants nothing to do with me. My older boy is a little skittish too. He hides under a chair all day. When he comes out at night he will sit with me in my chair and let me pet him, and he’s very cuddly when I’m in my bed. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I’m home most of the time, on work at home since the pandemic started. But there will be times coming up when I have to leave them alone. A big problem is that I can’t get either of them to let me trim nails. We have had to go to the vet and that’s a trauma in itself. I need advice! I love them to pieces but I feel like I’m doing something to hurt them that makes them avoid me.
