Ok here's the technique: you need to walk up to it - slowly mind, don't spook it whatever you do - and when you finally get close then look for a tiny soft spot just under it's chin. Give it a pet there in a sort of scratchy circular motion and when it starts to really relax and trust you then gently (really, really softly ok) whisper in it's left ear "I'm gonna make you into a hamburger"
What happened to all the eggs that were in the fridge earlier?
