I have recently brought home a 7 month old British smoke black shorthhair. He is a a lovely cat and I have now had him for 3 weeks. Problem is is that he is just so frightened of us (me and my wife). He will come up for a smooth but when you put your hand out to stroke him he backs off. If we move when he is in our presence he runs away and hides under the bed and may stay there all day. He doesn't eat at regular intervals, but is eating. What do we need to do to make him feel more at home? How long can it take for an older cat to get used to us and his new surroundings?
