I've had Cleo for over 5 years. I adopted her to be a friend to my male and I didn't mind that she was a bit skittish (she was almost 2 when I got her) since I live alone and there would be no one else to bug them. Since they both liked to hide, I figured they'd be good company for each other. I've been working from home for a year and a half and she must have been getting used to me since it got to the point at the beginning of the summer that they could both be on the bed, I could walk in the room, pet them both and she wouldn't run and hide.
Last month my male got sick and decided he'd rather hang out in the basement where his food and litterbox were and where my friend was temporarily living. Cleo would wait until no one was around and check on him and hang out with him but otherwise she just hid under my bed. Unfortunately he passed away a couple weeks ago. Now, when she sees me, she hisses at me. What can I do to make friends with her? I am trying with the treats but she waits until I leave before she'll eat them. Any suggestions would be great.
