Feral Cat Takes 3 Years To Trust This Woman!

You wouldn't believe how this one thing allowed this feral cat to trust her human! ❤️

Transcript

00:00So, I've been trying to win over this cat for over three years now.

00:04Ow!

00:04If I got too close, she would run away.

00:07Apple.

00:09I was pretty determined to win her over

00:11because I found her as a feral cat while I was living in Zimbabwe.

00:15Spooky had actually given birth to three little kittens.

00:18Chip stayed with me and the other two got adopted by friends.

00:22Spooky!

00:24Come on, Spooky!

00:26I read that you could start putting treats on the end of the oven glove

00:30and tempt her with treats, but nothing really worked.

00:34I left a piece of clothing and I found her asleep on it.

00:38Spooky!

00:41I was like, oh, that's strange.

00:43I started to think that, OK, maybe she likes my smell.

00:47Then it was one day, she started creeping very slowly towards me.

00:53She started to smell my hair.

00:56It sounds absolutely bizarre, but I think she likes to play with my hair.

01:00Let's see if this works.

01:02Spooky!

01:03She was a bit cautious at first, but she would come creeping up

01:07and then she would just go mad for my hair.

01:11So, I started doing it more and more often to try and win her over.

01:15My hair was like catnip to her.

01:17From that point on, I noticed such a huge change in Spooky.

01:20She came up and snuggled up next to me.

01:24That was a real breakthrough moment.

01:27Isn't she good?

01:29It's been a pretty incredible journey.

01:33Are you coming?

01:36Hello!

01:37I can't imagine my life without her now.
