Approach your cat calmly and gently, avoiding sudden movements that may startle them

Support your cat's body with one hand under their chest and the other supporting their back legs.

Do not squeeze or put pressure on your cat, as it can cause discomfort and stress.

Ensure a secure hold by keeping your cat close to your body and providing stability

Respect your cat's boundaries; if they resist, allow them to stay on the ground.

Choose a quiet and familiar environment for pick-up to minimize anxiety.

Reward your cat with treats and praises after a successful pick-up to create positive associations.
