I've taken on my late relative's cat, I got her on Thursday night and she still hasn't eaten anything, I'm getting really worried now.
She has always been extremely shy and nervous, my aunt had other cats that used to bully her. I also have a cat, a Tom who obviously wasn't at all pleased to see her - he hissed and growled at her but now has settled down and is just ignoring her. I've kept them separated, and they have separate food bowls in different areas of the house.
She is fat, so I guess she has surplus to live off as it were, but she's such a lovely little thing, and I just want her to settle in and be happy here. My aunt used to feed her ham and chicken and cat biscuits, so although my own cat eats proper cat food pouches and biscuits, I've been giving her the same as she's been used to. I've also tried her with the pouches, but nothing.....
She's healthy as the day after I got here took her to the vet for a check-up and she got an all-clear. Has anyone got any advice please?
