Hey Reddit,
My boyfriend and I moved from an apartment to a townhouse yesterday, and we brought my cat (obviously!). Renegade has been terrified since we got him in yesterday afternoon, hiding under his armchair. I put him in one of our spare bedrooms with his litter box, and food and water dishes, and he refuses to come out from under his chair (it’s exclusively his chair and where he slept most of the time at the old apartment). He hasn’t used his box or eaten or drank anything since yesterday.
I know it will be an adjustment for him, but I really feel terrible that’s he’s so terrified and won’t come out, even with coaxing. I have gotten him out a few times, picked him up and snuggled him and then he immediately wants back under the chair. I’m worried about him not using the box or eating and drinking.
What can I do to help him beyond what I’ve already done? He’s also petrified by the ceiling fans in 2 of the bedrooms and thankfully the room he’s currently in doesn’t have one.
I love this wee kitteh more than anything and wasn’t expecting this reaction from him as he is usually very sassy and confident.
