I recently got a new kitten. Here's the story on this kitten. It was found by a friend of mine somewhere in the snow last week. She thought that it was badly abused by some people. It is like 6 weeks old as far as we know. We do not know whether it's a male or a female. Since we have had this kitten, it's been hiding anywhere that it can and will stay there. it has not gone to the bathroom in it's litter box yet. I want to know what to do about this? Also, when people are walking or begin to walk, it tries to hide.
