i adopted a kitten yesterday
    #6557438 -

he is like 4 months old...was abused. thing is VERY scared of pretty much everything. he wont even stand up when i put him in the litter box. if i put him on the floor he takes off running behind something. however if i put him on like a blanket he just cuddles up with it and goes to sleep. he'll hiss if u try to pick him up after he runs away but if u just put him in ur lap the thing goes right to sleep. i wonder how long it will take to adjust...i feel bad for the little guy

named him jerry :gd_icon:

I got a kitten like that. She was about a year. Now I've had her for a while , and she's my little attention whore. :heart: Lots of love and understanding is all it takes.
What's he look like?

Given that the cat is so young, he'll probably bounce back fairly quickly emotionally, and be a great pet.  Just be patient and make him feel safe and loved, and he'll be ok :smile:  Post a picture!

lots of attention..

cats are attention whores.. keep on playing with him.. give him a few toys to bat around the house when you aren't home... he'll be adjusted in no time.

but, i do suggest buying a squirt bottle for discipline... scratching at furniture and stuff like that has to be 'punished' somehow... a few blasts of water has worked well w/ all the cats i've had save for one or two... and i've had a lot of cats over the years...

:smile:

It will eventual come to the point where you won't even have to squirt them, the sight of the bottle will be enough to tell them they've done wrong.

I never understood why that worked so well though... I know cats hate water, but it's just a little. My last car would literally bolt to the farthest corner of the house if he even saw one of the things.

i wish i had a pic, im here at work now though... he's looks all black, but in a well lit room, you can see he's got a bunch of dark brown fur mixed in. ears are dark brown... eyes are yellowish green. cool looking cat. i guess somebody beat it up and just tossed it on the street. they found it in a really white trashy town a few miles from me

oh and the coolest thing, i bought this self cleaning litterbox..greatest invention ever! it was a tad pricey, but the thing works perfectly. 10 mins after the sensors detect a cat it sifts through the litter and dumps the clump in this diposable container which it then promptly seals. im guessing each disposable container would hold about a week's worth of clumps.

You got an automatic litter box? I want one!
