Can I get my cat to love me again?

Question

My cat is about 5 or 6 years old. He used to be very attached to me and followed me everywhere. He loved to sit on my lap and sleep in my bed. Then I moved off to college. Now when I go home he acts like he doesn't know me and doesn't like to be held by me anymore. Do you think he will love me again in time? Can cats hold a grudge?

Answer 1

If you're not even sleeping in the same bed anymore, the relationship is probably already over.  But you could try a few things to rekindle the romance.  Go to American Apparel and pick out something rapey.  Sometimes introducing toys can spice things up too.  Try lying naked on the bed and slowing drawing a shoelace up your body.  If that doesn't get him to jump on in, nothing else will.

Answer 2

the possibility of a cat holding a grudge is very unlikely. Don't force the cat to do anything it doesn't want to that WILL make it hate you. If you let it come to you when it wants to come to you it will eventually fell more comfortable around you and possibility love you as much as it once did.

GOOD LUCK!

Answer 3

I think if you put in the time & effort you can get your relationship back. It may not be quite the same, but I am sure you can be close again IF you try...just try to stroke him and offer treats whenever possible- cats tend to love those who feed!

Answer 4

give him cat nip

lol

Answer 5

CATS ARE A WALKING LIVING GRUDGE!

try treats... give them and then pet... then walk away... you will be surprised how quickly he learns!

Answer 6

it is not a grudge, he just found someone else to feed him and keep him warm.

cats have no loyalty, they just use us for food and shelter.

feed him meat as treats. beef, poultry or pork. cooked, no seasonings. he will love you again.

dont let him see you take the meat from the fridge or off your plate, if he sees where it comes from, he will hunt that area.

beg at the fridge, climb onto your plate.
