Adolescence can be a tricky time. Extra effort to bring out the cuddle in the cat at this age will always pay off down the road. I’m thrilled she’s responding so well!

It does work as my husband and I recently discovered. We tried the "Drape" with a 7-month old kitten that was not particularly interested in cuddling and sure enough, she has now begun to seek us out for holding. The holding lasts for up to half an hour or longer sometimes. Occasionally, we're the ones who have to put her down because we can't sit or stand any longer!! Thanks for this tip!!

Yeti is a 20lb adult Maine Coon cat, and he loves to ride my shoulder, usually with his fluffy butt on my ear for stability. I bring him up to the Drape, and he snuggles there as long as he wants, then climbs up to stand on my shoulder, and it's time for the Parade. I walk smoothly and slowly around the house, and he stands on my shoulder and purrs. Eventually I walk over to the cat tree to let him off (if Cleo isn't already there) or walk over to the sofa and bend down smoothly so he can just step off on to the cushions. Yeti is a very happy cat.
