Vicious Turned Loving

Gremlin was a small vicious kitten that was trapped and taken from the wooded area he was living in. I first met him when I went to my friends house and saw him inside the condo he was being kept in. I was told that he and his two sisters were very mean and could not be handled.
I asked to take care of him and try to turn his frown into a smile. I was later contacted to take him when she thought it was best to separate him from his sisters. He came to me in a small cage that he had to be kept in do to his temper tantrums and so he could see how the other cats in my house interacted with me. I tried to handle him wearing gloves and he bit through the glove. I then realized that he was very stubborn and forcing him to like me was not going to work. With the help of a few online tips I started to hand feed him chicken and bacon. He soon realized I wasn't so bad and he let me pet his little head. He thought to himself, gee that feels really good and I should let her do that more. As I was cooking the chicken I would pick him up and hand him a piece of chicken that I had let cool.
After several times of allowing me to pick him up he started purring and I knew I had him.
He is now a very sweet, comical, loving kitten. Gremlin is currently learning to sit with the use of chicken.
His sisters found good loving homes.
