Cat Tips

  If you are a dog person, you probably act a little like a dog. You like to greet people face to face and you like to be touched.

Cats do not like to be greeted loudly and frontally and they hate it when you run at them. Establishing relations with cats you are vacation-sitting is an oblique activity. Slide into the room and find a comfortable activity. Perhaps, get yourself a snack and go sit quietly in a chair and watch TV or read a book. No need to say much at first. Allow the cat to watch you and if you are successful in looking trustworthy, stable and disinterested, kitty might come see you. Resist the temptation to grab him and give him a big wet kiss. Good things take time.
