Sometimes our pets are a little wary of meeting new people and will hide to avoid the introduction. TikToker @itslicibaby96 recently met her brother\u2019s orange cat for the first time, and he was pretty standoffish, until she found the funniest way to coax him into coming closer.<\/p>\n
Turn your sound on for this one because the cat actually moves to the beat Lici is making with her hands. Watch as she drags her hand back and forth across a blanket and see how he reacts. He starts walking in sync with the sound, and it\u2019s cracking people up!<\/p>\n
How many times did you watch the video? We’ve watched it at least three times, and other commenters couldn’t get enough of watching the cat stalking Lici’s<\/a> hands either!<\/p>\n Related: Maine Coon Cat Who\u2019s Built to Hunt Decides to \u2018Work Remotely\u2019 Instead<\/strong><\/p>\n \ud83d\udc36<\/a>SIGN UP to get \u201cpawsitivity\u201d delivered right to your inbox with inspiring & entertaining stories about our furry & feathered friends<\/strong><\/a>\ud83d\udc3e\ud83d\udc3e<\/a><\/p>\n Viewers left hundreds of comments about Lici enticing the cat and the orange cat’s funny way of approaching her.
