Some cats just do NOT like to be petted. And some cats do not like to be held or picked up. I have a few cats out of my pride that I’m not allowed to hold or pick up. They were raised just the same as the others that do like to be held and picked up but they just don’t like it. It’s a purr-sonality trait that I don’t feel you can change.

One of my cats is like that too.but she will let me pet her and pick her up but not all the time almost like she wants to be petted and held half the time but not the other half.Its probally just the personality of the cat like some cats love attention and some cats don’t.Don’t give up though because you don’t want to ignore her. Good luck!

SOME CATS JUST LIKE TO DO THEIR OWN THING. THEY STILL LOVE YOU BUT THEY DONT LIKE TO BE HUNG ON. I HAD A CAT FOR 6 YEARS AND MY FRIENDS NEVER KNEW I HAD A CAT UNTIL THEY SAW THE LITTER BOX. THATS JUST THEIR PERSONALITY.
