Hi, this is my first post! i hope someone can help!
My girlfriend recently 'rescued' a stray cat and it's now living in our apartment. It is very skinny, but looks reasonably healthy.
This is my question, we have had her for about a week now, but she is showing no signs of settling down or enjoying living here. She crys everytime she is touched or picked up. She spends all of her time hiding and only comes out when she is really hungry. We have two small kittens and she hates them.
We live in a nice apartment compound and we found her in the gardens. We had been putting food out for her for about a month and eventually she came inside with us. The compound is safe for her (no cars). Do you think it could be really distressing her living in our apartment as maybe she has got used to living outside and should we release her?
Your advice would be appreciated.
