My neighbour's cat sometimes sneaks into my apartment. It has explored pretty much every inch of the apartment, including the bathroom sink, under the sofa, under my bed, the kitchen counters, the shower... but it still wouldn't let me anywhere near it. Sometimes I let my main door open just for the cat. I'm hoping one day we'll form some sort of bond and I'll be able to give some pets. I've never owned a cat before but this one made me desperate to get one.

(I'm referring to the cat as "it" because I don't know the sex)

If you wanna tempt it try eating tuna, getting a laser pointer, or feeding the cat churu by hand. My cats lick it outta the tube. Your mileage may vary.

You could feed it some tuna but don't go overboard it's a lot of sodium for their kidneys.

This cat seems young and playful so I might try playing with a toy. I love it whenever I catch the cat burying its poop 🤣 I also heard some feisty screams with my other neighbour's cat so I know that there's some drama going on haha
