Hey guys, I just got a 2 month old kitten in the house and 4 or 5 days ago. He was super scared and skittish, and now he's a lot better but I still can't just catch him; it has to be when he's resting under the bed in the corner, or in the closet, or something. But he's already gotten plenty better.
However, I have to be gone for 5 days; the 13th through the 17th. Gahhh. I leave him in my room, with food and water and a litter box and toys (I'm getting some more today), away from my other cat and all other animals. My Daddy can tend to his litterbox and such, but will he be ok for 5 days without me?? I don't know what to do and I feel so badly =/

lol. But all cats are unique indivduals.
how about you record your voice on a cassette and ask your pa to set it up in the room where the kitten is and have him play it through out the day, each day till you get home. Also I'd leave some old clothes of yours (not washed gotta smell of you!!) or perhaps a bed sheet of yours so he can get used to your smell and voice.
I gave up approaching him, and last night he crawled on the bed with me and fell asleep at my feet while I was on the phone!!! 
Then I picked him up because I had to roll over and didn't want to kick him, and put him near my chest. He curled up right by my face and fell asleep. 
Oh my it just is the best feeling. You are "chosen" !!
