I have a 3 year old rescue Torti named Emma, I have had her since she was 6 weeks. I had to pull her because the situation was so bad. I love my cat even though as all animals she has a annoying habits. But Emma does not seem to like me. As a baby we cuddled. I spent every moment taming her working on bonding with her. She was in miserable shape when I got her, I worried so much constantly. It took us until she was 6 months to get a clean bill of health.
However, Emma does not seem to really like me, she tends to avoid me she won't really cuddle up to me the only time she acknowledges me is when she is stressed ( She turns into velcro kitty) , when I go outside without her, Or when she thinks she will be fed.
I know I am not the greatest cat owner, I grew up with dogs, I am use to the loving you every moment and wanting constant contact. With Emma though ... I feel like any moment she gives me is precious.
I don't know what to do to encourage her that I am a good guy, that I really do love her. I know I am reading a bit much into it, But she happily cuddles up to my boyfriend and purrs and spends all day with him.
I just want to win her over. Its certainly harder than my dog.
