Hello everyone! Hopefully I can get some help here. My grandfather became sick and I offered to take his cat. She's a year old and we've had her a week.
She had been in my closet the entire time. I hear her come out to drink and use her box which I put outside the closet.
I bring her wet food (and dry) by going in the closet (i know, I know, I shouldn't disturb her) when I do this, she will hiss at me... However, she won't back away, her ears are perked up and she looks very excited about the food. She has no interest in play. And I sprinkled a little cat nip on my closet floor just now in the hopes that she'll get some enjoyment out of it.
I feel like we should have made more progress in a week. I need some advice on how to help her adjust. Thanks!
