Hi Ping and Pong (now renamed MAX and GINGER) our 2 English shorthairs from Australia via HK have been adopted since Sunday 4pm. It's now Tuesday evening ie 48hrs since they arrived. They were in a pet shop cage for a day (I was led to believe)
I put them in the SANCTUARY a bath room.
Now their peeing problems seem fine, as well as not sleeping in the litter (Thanks for the suggestions gang).
NOW - One threw up last night, as I found undigested food on the floor.
VERY little food has been eaten.
I brought both of them out for a sniff around the lounge and downstairs bathroom. They were quite relaxed and even used the scratching post GOOD !!.
But today they just wont come out and dart back into the sanctuary and just sit there or hide away and stare. If I go to stroke them they look scared but after a while they'll get smootchy. But then hide again.
So now I moved their litter tray, food and beds out of the SANCTUARY into adjoining the back room and shut the door of the bathroom which is bigger and connects to the kitchen and the dining room in a hope that they will venture out.
Q.How long will it take for them to adjust a week ten days, two weeks ?
They are 4 years old.
Why do they not eat?
Is this normal?
What toys can I buy to motivate them I m worried they will NEVER come out and hide for ever
Cheers Jenny and Richardundefined
