    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    I had to give them away after they were weaned as I couldn't handle 3 growing kittens in my apartment. My cat at the time didn't display and signs of depression or didn't call out for them when they were gone. Small update though: Whilst she is still hiding and a bit timid, she has come out...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    Yes, definitely. She absolutely hates her current crate so I am thinking to get another one and take her to get checked this week.

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    She has been through a rolloercoaster ride. I took her in as she was abandoned and she 'chose' me by waiting by my flat everyday and eventually she made herself comfortable at my flat. I took her to the vet and she had no medical issues and no microchip...but she was pregnant! 2 weeks later, she...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    Thank you so much for your support! It definitely gives me a bit of hope and persistence to be patient and take time to understand my cat. She now has a comfortable spot in the bathroom where she sits on a towel she started kneading on. She didn't like the warm blanket and hid when she saw it...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    I welcome all suggestions :) I am a complete newbie and this was my first vacation away from her. I've only had my cat for 4 months and I have so much to learn and I am so thankful for this forum. That is a very good point. Since me and my friends are teachers, we also go on holiday at the...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    I did go on vacation for 4 weeks, so I must have picked up a lot of scents! It just makes me sad to see her look so sad and scared. Interesting point, but I never really had anything particular, but she is used to having me have the TV on. I have spent more time with her today sitting near her...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    That makes sense, and it was something I didn't even realise could be a potential issue! I was under the impression she would be owning my flat and happy to have her own space and smells back, and it was sad to see her retreat and hide in her own home. Baby steps for sure!

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    She only seems to eat when I am sleeping. I will see how it goes again tonight. I have tried tempting her with treats, her wet and dry food but she has no interest whatsoever. She hasn't eaten all day :/ Could it be possible that she got used to other food whilst she was at the cat sitter...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    Thank you for the reassurance! She came out for a couple of minutes in the morning and I think that is a lot of progress for her! She still feels more comfortable to come out when I am not around and hides again when she hears me walking in the room. I sit with her and pet her, which she allows...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    Luckily, she didn't pee or poo anywhere else in the house, but I was surprised that she was able to hold it for so long. She ate a full pack of wet food and some of her dry food. The bowl was cleaned out so she must've been very hungry. Do you think it is possible that she ate from another bowl...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    Thank you so much for your replies I am a first time cat owner and I adopted her as she was abandoned and I find it very difficult to understand my cat! I thought about how it must be very different as the cat sitters house was two levels and she is now in a small one-bedroom apartment and that...

    Is my cat sick or adjusting after vacation?

    I recently returned from a 4 week holiday and picked my cat up from the cat sitter. The cat sitter has been amazing and looked after her well and she has other rescue cats in her flat in which my cat played with some of them. Since she’s been home, she’s been hiding and hasn’t peed or pooped...
