Kittens are so goddamn adorable but their teeth and claws are like needles. They are best.

All cats are best. But kittens are extra adorable/bleedy.

I can't actually get to him though. after about five feet he takes off. otherwise, yeah, that would have been at 5:30 today and i'd be posting about this cat hiding under my couch.

he's not starving. there's a huge bowl of food he's been eating from forever, provided by the sheriff's deputy. he's eating from it now. i'm just trying to get him to warm up a little.

e: hopefully i get a call back and can pick up a cage tomorrow afternoon and get this sorted out.

good luck. cages are risky - if he's able to escape as it's snapping closed it'll make him even more wary of you

if the cage doesn't work try laying down as close to him as you can while he's eating & talk to him. keep doing this and he'll get increasingly comfortable with you. when you're finally able to pet him you can gently pick him up

okay, get a pulley and some rope and a cardboard box. attach the pulley over where the kitten hangs out and suspend the cardboard box with the rope. gently lower the box onto the cat when it's sleeping or something.

I've tried that for MONTHS with a momcat.Months.

She becomes really really excited when she sees me because that means HEY FOOD FOOD I NEED FOOD I AM STARVING. But if I take ONE step towards her after she has meowed to demand her food, she bolts.

I mean she even does the straight-up tailshake when she sees me but does not allow pettings. And yet she loves to rub heads against my cats. Grr.

if it's a wild katten yes. if he's been previously owned by someone who didn't abuse him he may just decide to trust fully. lenny was like that, wouldn't let me near him, then after a lot of time spent feeding and talking to him he finally decided I was ok and just flopped on me

you can't just wing it when it comes to kittens, they're a cunning adversary. you need a plan.
