Hi everyone,
I adopted Coconut 5 months ago. I think he has been a street cat since he was born. He is spayed and at least 8 years old (missing teeth). He had eye infection, nutrition deficiency, flea problem, and FIV infection when I took him home. After several months medical treatment, he is getting close to a healthy cat now. But since his eyesight are recovered, he feels even more nervous about me than before.
1) Coconut never raises up his tail. I tried to play with him and give him treats, but he is scared of even a tiny mouse toy and show no interest in treats.
2) When Coconut still had eye infection, he really likes me petting him. I can even pet his stomach for half an hour and Coconut purred really loud. Now he attacks me whenever I try to get my finger close to him. I can only touch his head for minutes.
Coconut is a shy but really sweet cat. He sleeps on my pillow every day when I am not at home and go back to his bed when it's time for me to use the pillow.
I have never had any pet before. I am trying my best to make Coconut to feel at home and adapt his new indoor life. So any suggestion and comment are appertained.
