how do you turn a wild alley cat into a snuggle buddy?

Ever spotted a scruffy cat lurking in your backyard and wondered if you could make it your new BFF? Taming a stray is a marathon, not a sprint. First, I pick the friendliest-looking furball and offer food. If it comes close, I know I’ve got a shot! For the truly wild ones, I use a humane trap (with tuna—obviously). Once caught, it’s straight to the vet for a checkup. No touchy yet! After the vet gives the green light, I set up a cozy, quiet room. I hang out nearby, talking softly and bribing with treats. No eye contact—cats think it’s rude! Over days (or weeks), I let the cat come to me. Eventually, I get to pet and play. Sometimes, they become total cuddle monsters. Sometimes, they’re just cool roommates. Either way, it’s worth it! #straycat #catrescue #petadoption #catlover #Pets #Cats
