So me and my flatmate acquired two new kittens yesterday. They are adorable little tortoishells, both boys and both 8-10 weeks.
Kitten one says:
"loooooool;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;."
(Yes, he's a keyboard walker).
Anyway, we have everything we need - we think. Litter tray, litter, food bowls, water bowl, bed (which they don't use), wormer and kitten food.
Kitten number one (they aren't yet named) is fine, he is curious and roaming, he approaches people, meows a lot and hunts flies.
Kitten number two is the problem. He is extremely shy and scared. He won't come near anyone, even if that means missing breakfast. If you move while he is near - he runs. I am worried if we do not resolve this soon - he will stay like this for ever as he won't receive any conditioning as a kitten.
I need some advice on how to tame the little guy - he isn't violent - just extremely nervous.
Any advice would be wonderful.
Thanks.
