I adopted 8-year old Sally from a shelter that had received her after she was seized from a hoarding situation. She spent three months in the shelter and I have now had her for 2 1/2 weeks. After keeping her in the bathroom for the first week, she darted out one day and has been hiding in various places in the apartment, rarely coming out, and not letting me approach her at all. She spends most of her time in the lining of the couch, coming out mostly at night when we have already gone to bed. I have also tried sitting still and hoping she'll eventually come out and approach me, but we are making very little progress. Does anyone have any advice for me? I'm concerned that I have adopted a cat who will never really become acclimated to living with me and my other senior cat.
