The newcomer went into the cage at midnight last night. She has shredded several gloves (artificial arms) throughout the day. She has not eaten a thing yet. I went to KFC and bought some greasy chicken, but no go, she won’t eat. I checked on her three times today, leaving her covered the rest of the day so she could decompress. I found her either up in the rafters of the cage or hiding in the litter pan.
Tonight, I took out the cat condo that was inside replacing it with a small cardboard box on the top level. My hope is she will eventually retreat inside and feel safe within the confines of the box. She is a pretty girl, but her eyes, don’t look right. I will continue to work with her over time and hopefully be able to handle her enough to get her to the vet. At least she stopped trembling.
