Okay, here's the back story. I got Houdini when he was about 4mo, his mom was feral and the lady I got him from said he went through the car engine when he was 3mo, fell out while she was driving down the road and she went back and got him. He had bad worms when I got him and now I've had him for 2 years now and I would swear he has autism or something. He was just starting to warm up to me and be like a "normal" kitten when I took him at 6mo to get neutered. After that he became very afraid. I can't get close to him or he runs away. He acts like it hurts to pet him, so I don't try anymore. I can't pick him up for anything, most of the time he stays under the bed, and his eyes are most always dilated. Most people have just said he's shy, but it's more than that. I've had him long enough that he shouldn't be scared of me, but he is. He's scared of everything. It just breaks my heart. Has anyone dealt with a cat like this, or have any suggestions that might help him?
