hi all,
Yesterday my mum and I picked up a Siamese kitten (16 weeks) we also have an existing Siamese kitten (9months).
We were planning on getting new kitten home and putting him in my bedroom ( warm, small room) however on the 3 hour drive home my car broke down, my brother came to collect my mum and kitten to take them home and I waited for the RAC to come and tow me. My brother arrived with his wife and newborn baby and everything was fine.
Obviously I didn't witness what happened when they all got back to my house- but it ended up with my sister in law dragged the new kitten straight out of his "safe" cat carrier place for a cuddle to which he promptly jumped out of her hands and ran behind the cooker, my mum didn't realise this as she was trying to get the existing kitten (teddy) in another room whilst holding a screaming baby.
This is not what we had planned and I was pretty angry about it all.
The kitten is currently somewhere behind the kitchen cupboards we have heard him miaow a few times, we have moved all of teddys food litter and water out of the room and put all of the new kittens things down. He did come out last night (I heard him scuttle back first thing this morning) but he hasn't eaten, drank or used litter box.
Should we leave him to it? Or should be try and get him from behind the cupboards and back into his cat box to take him into my bedroom?
Teddy is currently just hissing at the kittens blanket.
Many thanks in advance
