Hey Guys, hope your weekend is going well!
Just out of curiosity, how long does it truly take for a kitten to like you and seek out your attention? I have had this kitten (a siberian) for about 7 weeks now and she is just finally starting to become very affectionate. I am just curious as to whether this is the norm and if cats always do take more work to form a bond with than a dog. To say im happy that shes starting to be this way is an understatement. She used to only come near me of her own volition when she wanted food. Now she follows me around like a dog and whines like hell if i shut her out of any room. She also paws at me to pick her up and pet her now and makes it super hard to do work (because she flops right on my chest if I dont give her enough attention haha). I have to say, in some ways, the work it took to get her to this point makes me appreciate it even more.
Looking forward to responses!
