Mastodawn

Honestly asking for advice.

I took up a cat three weeks ago from a friend who had to let go of her because she was being bullied by two other cats.

The cat is very very easily frightened. She is now living on top of a shelf in the storage room. A place that she chose.

She would not let me get anywhere close to her except last night when I offered snack.

Occasionally she would "meow" me to notify that she had peed.

Will she eventually come around? Anything I should do?

@sculd
you seem to be doing a great job gentling the cat. give the cat time. make sure the cat has access to a litter box, you might want to try two or three litter boxes in different places and see which one the cat uses. as long as the cat has access to food and water and a litter box they should be okay and eventually come around if you continue to be gentle.

@Severino one thing she is great at is using the litter box. Have to thank previous owner for getting that right.

I also got her a fountain and feed twice a day.

She didn't eat much at first but is getting better.
