Hi all, sorry if this has been covered before but I couldn't find anything. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on getting an adult cat used to being picked up. I've been trying for a while now with small pick ups and treats but she hasn't become any more relaxed.
Her background isn't really known, she was around 1 when we got her after being captured living wild with a new litter of kittens. She's definitely used to people and is very affectionate when she comes to us. However if we go towards her she runs away. She's lived here for over a year now, and the improvements with this behaviour are minimal...she won't react as badly when she's lying down but if she's up and about she runs still.
Amy help would be appreciated, vets trips and flea treatments would be a whole lot easier if we could pick her up
