Hello all,
On Saturday I adopted a cat that is approx. 1 year old from a shelter. I do not know her whole story but she and 3 of her siblings were given to the shelter. She appeared to be an indoor/outdoor cat and is slightly dirty. It has only been 3 days since I've adopted her and she is starting to come around but she is still very scared. She usually hides under my bed or under the table. She does not go near the living room or office. Just wanted some advice on helping her adjust. She has a scheduled appointment to be fixed tomorrow and I am afraid to take her out again and she'll be traumatized. This is my first time adopting a slightly "older" cat as opposed to a baby. Thanks so much!
