The cat is plenty young enough to be tamed. I had to trap 5 of Scary Mary's kittens when they were as old as this one. Each have their own time to be tamed. One took 2 1/2 days the others took over 5 months... All you need is a lot of patience.. This little guy you got ts a real beauty... Good Luck ...Mom.... :-)
That gives me hope, because this kitten is plenty wild
I had my kittens in a cage at first but that didn't work with Mickey. At first he was unusually calm that he went berserk. Had to let him out before he hurt himself. Best thing is a small room with little places to hide. I used my front closed in porch. Also with cats it would be nice if he had another cat his age to socialize with. Cats brought up by themselves have problems socializing with other cats and people when they grow up....
Yes, I have a room that I am clearing so that he can be let out of the cage to exercise and play. Unfortunately, there are no others his age but some of my other cats are pretty playful and they should be able to socialise soon. Even if he doesn't tame up completely, as long as he lives in the house, I don't mind, I have others like that
Think positive ...HE/SHE WILL TAME.. I almost gave up on mine, Now the five kittens are 2 years old and very well adjusted. Give me absolutely no trouble ...
I can see that :)
I have one that was untouchable for 5 years that I tamed within a month of her coming to me so I know it can be done. I'm just hoping that it doesn't need to be confined for too long
this.
(it took years (!) to tame ours...well, maybe "taming" is not the right word. let's say - it took years to soften her character)
Some are real knuckleheads :-)
To tame Scary Mary herself was a big achievement :)
I really didn't tame her... she's ok with people, but will never accept another cat ...
