Has anyone experienced this??

My friend and her boyfriend have gone out of town for the weekend and they asked me to look after their fur-kids. They just got a new kitten so they haven't really bonded with her yet. My problem is the kitten (Jynx) has REALLY bonded to me, so much that when I try to leave she clings onto my pants and won't let go, and this evening she ran out into the hall after me. I guess I'm just worried that this cat is getting too attached or something. What does everyone think?

I think the kitty really likes you

They're pretty good judges of character, I personally would feel a bit special.

maybe when the owners get back, you should sit down with the kitty and the owners and help them to show affection to it. Maybe they just don't know how....

Do they have any other kitties? How are they with them?

That kitten sounds so cute!

Aaww that's lovely. When they see how well you have bonded they will want to know how to do it.

She is doing that because you bring her food! I'm sure after your friend returns and starts feeding her, the bonding will change to your friend.

Your pictures had me cracking up! LOL!!! I especially loved the one called "Kanga sour cream! I guess we tried some sour cream....? Thanks for the laugh. I could really use it (see my posting under behavior re: cat amnesia).
