What happens when you ignore kittens


small kitten hiding in tunnel
Hum.. look at her try to ignore me..

Looked at only long enough to get the picture

I do not trust that lady to continue to ignore me, so I shall sit here for a while.. 
seal point kitten sitting on a leg
um.. you are looking at me.. 
How about we sit BEHIND you so you can't look at us!
I see you thinking of looking at us.. stop it! 
Because I really want to try out this leg/lap thing.. 
Monkey see Monkey do.. 
At one point I had all three of them on my lap, although the camera freaked Allie out a bit so she left.

Sparkle commented that maybe Allie would come around with out her brothers around, and yes, that is a possibility.. she might want to seek comfort and with out them to give it to her she might turn to me.  But then again she might just determine I ate them and be even more fearful of me. There have been times in the past when I have had to return a mother cat to the shelter to get her kits to bond to people, and they often turn very quickly once you do. We'll just have to play this one by ear.. She might just stay at the shelter after she is neutered and bond with another kitten up for adoption, I just don't know.

  5. slowly but surely. our have just reached the stage where they actively come up to mom to snooze on her. they are all really friendly and don't mind being held or anything like yours, but mom is suddenly the place to be :)

  7. They are super cute! Its so hard gaining the trust of kittens, I remember when I use to foster I had two really shy ones, really cute, and eventually came around, I used positive reinforcement giving them a treat every time they came closer etc, that seemed to work to a certain extent.
    Good luck! I have just come across your blog and am hooked already!
    I have a blog too :) if you would like to check it out? its, www.tailsbehindthetales.blogspot.co.uk

  8. Again, I think you have the patience of a saint. I'd find it really hard to keep my hands off the cuteness!
