How can I get my kitten to come out of hiding behind the kickplate under bathroom sink?
May 24th, 2013About a month ago I took in a feral kitten knowing it would be a challenge as he is absolutely terrified of humans, however, I wanted to save this special little guy so I took him in.
For the past month I have kept him in the bathroom so he can begin to adapt to his new home. He has been eating good, using his box excellent, and even shows signs of playing with his toys when I am not around.. but there is one little problem.. He seems to have found a small hole up underneath the sink that he can get in and out of with ease but that I can’t even fit my hand into. I am relieved to know that he is still coming out to eat, drink, and use his box, but I’m sure it isn’t safe for him to be cooped up in that small area all day – it may also take him longer to get used to me. I would like to make a vet appt for him to make sure he is healthy, but I am unable to capture him as he practically lives in the hole all day. Also, I rent so I cannot tear the sink apart. Any advice?
