Re: Kittens hissing....


I think they will be fine having the run of the downstairs, just make sure anything breakable in their reach is moved Their scent is on the litter tray now and I think it will be fine.

Re: Kittens hissing....


I'm going to unplug everything before I go to work, although they have been in the kitchen and not touched anything - so I think they should be ok, I'm slightly worried they might scratch my tv screen, but I'm hoping not.....

They are still hiding from me Although Ocean didn't hide when I came in today and watched me put his food down, but Choco hid the whole time, and when I walked towards the door Ocean hid I love them to bits I just want them to be happy with me! xx

Re: Kittens hissing....


They haven't come into the lounge tonight yet, which is unusual - they're still cuddled in the kitchen. I haven't touched them or tried to hold them at all - I'm worried that by me not making any contact with them they will not be loving when they grow I wish they wanted my company! x

Re: Kittens hissing....


My dad and stepmum have just come round and managed to get Ocean to have lovely cuddles with me!!!!! Choco is still terrified, but Ocean was quite happily cuddling me after he got over his initial fear of being stroked! It was only when Choco called Ocean that he went! I will post a piccie now... xx

Re: Kittens hissing....


My Oscar spent his fost few weeks with me behind the sofa...behind the wardrobe...under the bed (as long as I was not in it) behind anything and everything,,,he was abused as a kitten too.....broken ribs, whiskers pulled out burnt by cigarettes etc....so not a great start and he was the most loving of cats......gently gently....all you need is paitence....kittens are not like pups....they need ot get confidence before they walk all over you.....and don't worry they will walk all over you literaly.

Re: Kittens hissing....


Ocean just had little strokes, its Choco that is petrified, Ocean is nervous but more confident for sure, I think Choco must have been bullied by the other kittens as he clings to Ocean like glue! They're so funny to watch, Ocean is up on my sofa and everything!!!!
