Kitten question...please help.?

Some young kittens are that way, especially if they were taken from their mother too soon. It's not uncommon for them to be taken at 6 weeks or so in shelters, so this may be the case with your kitten. I recommend just giving him the attention and reassurance that he's seeking for now. He'll back off and become more adventurous in a few weeks when he's older and more secure in his new home. At some point you'll be left shaking your head wondering what happened to your clingy little kitten.

As you do not really know the background of the kitten he may not know how to play. Sit on the floor wit him and gently roll some ping pong balls across the floor and see if he will chase them. Also get some string and walk slowly round the floor dragging the string along and he should chase it. THe reason he crawls all over you is he sees you as his mother and still needs to feel secure, you could give him an old jumper that you have worn and encourage him to sleep on it and that will give him some security. Also bu some feliway spray or a feliway diffuser they give of natural cat hormones and creates a calm atmosphere. Just give him time and he will soon settle in.

If he was found without his mother he could be very dependent on you because he needs to feel secure. He may be suffering and is using you as a surrogate. let him climb all over you but engage your other cats at the same time. get them involved with him and maybe he will become more attached to them.

I've heard that rubbing some tuna water on the new kitten will make him more attractive to the others. They will groom him while getting the tuna water and this may cause bonding.

Shake hands, me and my husband adopted a 4 month old kitten from Humane Society this xmas, same as my brother and sister in-law.

The kitten they adopted is as same as your cat. He keeps licking my brother in-law's face when they are asleep. My brother has to carry him and walk around, like a little baby.

Sorry I can't really help with that. The only thing I can think about is because your cat hates the smell of Humane Society and he's afraid you will send him back there. Our cat ran away from us after we came back for Humane Society. Try hold him with one of your towel, wrap him with it when you are not around. Hope he can get used to it.

He is just very dependent nothing is wrong with him and don't ignore him maybe he is just afraid of the other cats. Try to give him attention not to much he is just a baby kitten.

He is missing his mom
