I have a new abyssinian male kitten - 14 weeks old, we have had him for 6 days - he was raised by a lil old lady who did not have time to handle him and his sisters much, so they were left pretty much on their own with a radio playing. Now he has to get used to a family of 5 (not a boistorous one I might add). we are keeping him in one room to get him used to things. We have to catch him to be able to pet him and he doestn like too many people in the room. Sometimes he spits at us. He does purr almost immediately when you stroke him, and does play with his toys as well. Will he be able to be socialized into a family and how long will this take? Some people tell me abbys need to be socialized well right from very small. Help!!
