my mother's cat took agers to warm up, she was shy scared (rescued exbreeder poor girl) Now she is the queen, give her time

Adopting a 16-year-old cat, especially one that’s a bit on the aloof side and has gone through a lot, is such a kind-hearted move. It’s great to hear you're picking up on those little signs that she’s getting comfy and bonding with you in her own chill way. It's so great that you're committed to making her twilight years as lovely as possible, and it seems like she's recognizing that, too, even if she's showing it in super subtle ways.😸💕

@@Gothymothmoth Oh, Trixie and I have been house mates for 6 months now. And definitely by the end of month 1 she has made this house her home. I mostly worry about her quality of life because she sleeps literally all the time. But that appears to be what she wants. Thanks for your empathy, and I'm glad your mother got her cat out of that situation. All the best to everyone.

@@Feline_Fanatics She's not my first senor, so I do have some experience caring for retired cats. though it's an ever ongoing learning experience. My previous cat Arthur - who I sadly lost to cancer last tear - was an ex-stray and the friendliest cat in the world. So I'm mostly getting adjusted to the "worlds apart" difference in personalities. Hence my concern that Trixie could be depressed. Turns out she just likes snoozing a lot.

Opposite for me

Feed the cat closer to the door, or sit outside when you feed. Don't get too close and do not try to trap it in the house! Go slowly and let the cat learn that you are trustworthy. If you already have any pets, consider how a new cat could upset the pets already with you. ❤ Good luck, and thank you for caring about the cats. ❤

Patience. Make a shelter for the cat outside, feed it regularly, and it the weather gets really cold you may be able to persuade it in. But in the meantime be very happy it hangs around your yard.

Trying to win over a feral cat can definitely be a challenge, but it's so rewarding when you make progress! Here are a few tips that might help: Start by establishing a routine, like feeding at the same times each day, so the cat starts to expect and trust your presence. Try sitting nearby quietly during feeding times to help them get used to you. Using a calm voice, talk to the cat to help them become familiar with your presence without feeling threatened. You could also try leaving a worn shirt or blanket outside to get them used to your scent. Gradually, they might start coming closer. It can take a lot of time for them to feel comfortable enough to come inside🐱💖🏡

@@mpredgate Thank soooooo much for your help and I will try what you said 👵🏻🤗🐱

Nothing wrong with the name

@@MadHax-wt5tl ?

I like the name of this channel

At least it's not an AI, well it doesn't sound like one in any case.

I like his voice

He's a real human being, and he has a nice voice. I like its timbre. He sounds astute and intelligent, like a cat might sound, in fact.
