The three cats (and their owner) moved out on Friday last week from the flat below me. He was very friendly with two of them, BamBam and Pebbles.
He looks so sad and just sits in his bed with his head hanging over the edge. During the weekend he would go outside and I watched him from the window. He kept on looking for them by their cat flap and then in the garden. He must have come in and out about 20 times in one day.
I have been playing with him and loving him. Last night when I got home from work he ran to the bottom of the stairs to greet me at the door. I walked about for a bit, from bedroom to lounge to kitchen and each time he followed me. He also sat in the hallway meowing really loud for a while.
After I had fed him he came right up onto the sofa next to me and kept on staring at me whilst I stroked him. I could have sworn I saw him crying (if cats do cry that is).
Is it possible that he is depressed?
