Most people living with cats are rarely aware of the effect of their body language.
- Your body communicates messages to the kitten or adult cat that can be more powerful than what you say.
- The underlying rule is to be as nonthreatening in manner or gesture as possible.
- Keep in mind that a cat in comparsion to a human is a very small creature
- Do not stand so close that you tower over him, forcing him to move out of your way
- Inexperienced kittens may follow you around so closely that they intertwine between your feet and get stepped on
- It is always best when possible to kneel down to the cat's level so that he can relate to you without feeling threatened
- Do not make sharp, unfriendlymoves when you are close to the cat
- Sudden or jerky gestures have a negative effect on a kitten
- Strive for an easy and soft manner with your kitteninfo credit to http://smalldogs2.com/
