We just bought a 8 month old kitten home 4 days ago. We've put her in her own room with food, water and her litter tray. It took a few days but she's finally eating and using the litter tray. She started out hiding in a corner but has finally come out and is now hiding in our wardrobe at about eye level. My partners approach to her is to push her boundary's a little, see what he can and can't do. Where as i prefer to sit and talk to her and let her come to me. Now my.partner, with chicken in his hand can get super close to her and pretty.much stroke her. But i cant move anywhere from the opposite side of the room! The second i look up at her she hissed and growls. I'm the one that feeds her and brings her treats. I don't know what I'm doing wrong or whether she just prefers my partner?
I have tried his approach but honestly i am a little scared around her just because i don't know whether she's going to be unpredictable and just lash out without warning. Also, she stares at me, i guess to try to figure me out but it makes me really uncomfortable, it doesn't matter whether it's pets or humans it just freaks me out. I know she can sense all that and it may be making her more scared of me.
I'm really at a loss on what to do
