Why does your cat withdraw when you try to pet him?

If your cat once was a stray, maybe he/she had a bad experience. Remember, a bad experience your cat has most probably would stay with them all their life. you (or some unkind stranger) lean in to pet your cat, but then hit them or hurt it in some way, your cat may think you are going to do the same thing again! Another thing that may be wrong is its just a bit moody,or it has a sore on its head. Never follow a cat around trying to pet it if it withdraws, unless you want a scratched hand( you cant blame your cat for doing it though!) to get your cat to allow you to pet it, maybe try once every hour, dont rush it.try sitting still(but not statue-like) and hold out the treats in hand then let him eat it, pet it then,Im not an expert, so try calling a trusted vet.

Why when you try to touch your cat it runs?

The cat might not feel comfortable with you yet if you just got him/her. Try giving him/her a treat so he/she will come to you. Then, let him/her sniff you and slowly/gently pet the cat. Don't make any sudden movements. Of course, every cat has a different personality, so if this doesn't work you might need to try something else.
