Any suggestions..
We adopted our 9 month old kitten on Saturday. We are making leaps and
bounds with the socialization. He now lets us pet him when he is in his little house - but does not let us hold him. He is just starting to come out of his house (a very little bit) when we are in the room. He has not used his litterbox yet (we changed his litter tonight to a new type - hoping he just didn't like the type - it was recommended - but very wierd). He hasn't pooped but has urniated twice - once on our bed when we surprised him by walking in the door...we didnt even know he was in there..and last night in the middle of the night on our bedroom floor. He is neutered... We let him roam the house all day - but we don't think he leaves his room (he has a whole empty room for himself). At night we have been closing his door and he crys and crys...so last night we let him roam thinking he wouldn't cry..WRONG! Instead he cried in our bedroom - and urniated.lol He wouldn't let me hold him or touch him and basically I am running on only 3 hours sleep each night since we got him. Last night was the worst between the crying and the urinating... Am I bad for wanting to close him in his room tonight? He has toys, food, water, litter box, bed and a little kitty condo. Any suggestions to help make him feel more comfy in the house? We did buy the feliway - but it says to spray in the room and wait 20 min to let him back in. If we are walking up and about - he does not leave that room. HELP? I want to be a good kitty mommy... Danielle |

Sounds like he's coming along just fine! It just takes a little time
somehow. After all, from his point of view, he's been kidnapped! And probably not for the first time in his life. Just keep being kind to him and eventually he'll realize the situation is not all that bad : |
