Hello,
my year and a half old male short hair, O.P. is depressed. I think.
Just wanted to run this by the msg boards....he was checked out only 7 days ago for his routine check up, clean bill of health. Well, while at the vet we saw an adorable little girl kitten and added her to the fam. We have kept her in her own room so that we can introduce them slowly to each other and so as not to encroach on his turf too soon.
The first couple days we kep them totally separate, then a couple days later let them see each other from afar while being held, then couple days later let them touch noses and sniff each other; then yesterday and today let them prance/chase/poke around each other...they seemed to be having fun...one would chase the other, then visa versa, up down left right...no claws, no hissing...
But O.P. is not eating his food. We tried a different kind thinking he was being picky. Tried just dry food. Tried treats but he puked them up. Other than this he is totaly fine, not lethargic, still jumping around and playing, still sleeps with us at night, looks out his favorite window...nothing else out of the ordinary.
Do you think this is anxiety?
