Jasper. Sigh.
So my kids were hot and they turned on the ceiling fan in the den. Jasper was in the house. Jasper freaked out over the fan. He ran as fast as he could upstairs, then he hid in the master bedroom sink. I guess that's his new "safe" spot.
So now he will RUN through that room as fast as he can when the light's on. For that matter he freaked out this morning when I turned the kitchen light on.
I told the girls NOT to turn the fan on in there anymore.
Any ideas how to de-sensitize this very nervous cat?
And I thought I'd heard everything until I googled cat afraid of ceiling fan and I got a ton of hits.
I really don't want to put him on medicine. I don't know why he's just so skittish. Maybe it's because it's a multi-cat household. Well- there's nothing we can do about it. Sneaky and Holly were here first and I can't get rid of them. And I can't get rid of him b/c he's 10 years old and I took him in as a favor to a neighbor.
