    Be prepared to keep it for up to 20 years, barring any health problems or accidents.

    I feel like there's something hidden behind the word caretaker... Are you really not gonna take me away from my owner?
    Of course~

    I must say, I’ve never really interacted with cats. But if it’s anything like taking care of a dog, you’ll want to work hard early on to get into its good books, that way it’ll be more comfortable playing with you and being around you later on.

    Don’t go too fast. Don’t force it to play with you if it doesn’t want to. Start soft. Just be around it, like sit near it for a while every now and again. Don’t reach out and grab it, just slowly let it get comfortable with your presence. Get it used to you feeding it. Ideally, it’ll eventually come to you of its own volition - it knows you won’t hurt it, and sometimes you even get it yummy things.

    Of course, I’ve only ever really interacted with dogs. All this advice may be completely useless for cats, idk.
    Still, treating it well shouldn’t be a bad idea.:hmm:
