    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    We continue to make progress. She now sleeps with me every night and lets me pet her a lot but keeps a bit of distance. She still stays a certain distance away when I’m standing up but she keeps coming near me up to a certain distance so I think she’s curious but not totally comfortable yet. I’m...

    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    We make a little progress every day. She likes playing with the rope toy so I have been able to draw her out to different parts of the apartment with that. She still uses under the bed as her home base though. And she is still nervous when I’m standing up but this morning I got her to walk...

    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    We’ve made some progress this weekend. I can sit upright and she doesn’t get scared and she comes to me and lets me pet her. And I even stood up very slowly and she just hung out by my feet and wasn’t frightened. She likes to play with the rope toy and I got her to go to various places in the...

    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    Oh yeah. I just want her to feel relaxed though. I have a feeling she has been exploring a bit while i´m away. Last night I went to the neighbors for a half hour and when I came back a picture frame from the top of my bookshelf was on the floor. So I think she´s mainly nervous around me, when...

    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    So I know how to get her to let me pet her. I just lay on the floor next to the bed and hold my hand out until she comes to me. She pretty much stays under the bed though and will come out briefly to roll around while I´m petting her but then runs back under. She came out and explored the...

    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    Well she let me pet her last night. I just laid on the floor and hend my hand out and she eventually started getting closer and gradually let me pet her and then got really cuddly and was walking in circles and rolling on the floor. She pretty much stayed under the bed still but came out from...

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I bought a Feliway diffuser last night and plugged it in so hopefully that will help.

    She does have a more comfortable thing to lay on under the other side of the bed.

    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    Ok I’ll just be patient. This morning I found an 8 hour video of birds on YouTube and left it playing on my iPad for her. She came out for a bit until she saw me and went back under. She should have fun watching that today.

    New Cat Hiding Under The Bed.

    I just adopted a new cat from a shelter on Sunday and she has been hiding under the bed ever since. She does come out to use the litter box and I put some food and water under the bed and hear her consuming them at night. But I want her to feel comfortable coming out and I really want to get to...
