This is my first post--anywhere. I adopted a 6mos old Birman/Snowshoe looking female cat 4 days ago. The shelter said she the last of a litter to be caught and was brought in "alone". She was brought to the shelter when she was 10wks old. She's been caged ever since. The volunteer said she tried to socialize her everyday but was just now getting to where the cat would go to her for treats. I let kitty loose in a small room with food,water,litter box,toys, boxes to hide in. I know where she is but she will not come out of hiding. I just close the door and leave her alone. I spend a lot of time on the computer in there but I never see her. She is eating and pooping very well. Am I doing the right things? Any other suggestions? Thanks and sorry for being so verbose.
