I just brought a kitten home (approximately 11 weeks old) and this is my first cat ever.
She was a very skittish kitty when I first brought her. She likes to be petted but it takes an effort to catch her since she runs away. Once we get a hold of her and start petting her, she was purring and relaxed.
Once I brought her home, I put her in the bathroom for her to settle down with her litter box (with the same litter she's been using), food (that she's been eating), water, a blanket and the carrier I used.
I left her in there for an hour and when I entered the bathroom, she was gone. After about 26 hours, I finally figured out where she could be hiding. I think she climbed up into is a very small space between the cabinet and the wall. It is impossible for me to reach for her.
I laid out some treats and kitty milk just so that she will eat and keep hydrated. It's been about 29 hours and she is yowling (based on my googling). She hasn't touched the food or the snack.
I kept the light off and door closed.
I can be patient and wait for her to come out but I am just worried that the bathroom is too cold for her. Despite it being summer, my apartment is cool and the bathroom is even colder(tile etc.)
There is a blanket, a towel and her carrier with a pad laid out. Every time I make a noise, she stops yowling.
Should I be worried about anything? I am not sure if she is drinking anything or if she is too cold.
