Pets

She went a week without using the cat box or eating or even coming out from under the bed!

I sat beside the bed and kept reassuring her, and eventually she did come out and start living. Now of course she rules the house.

I'm glad your older cats are helping out. Maybe you could have them and the food and the catbox whereever she is, and they'll teach her?

The youngest kittens often miss out on the training from mom. We had another one who was thrown away at about 5 weeks, and he never really learned to groom himself. Fortunately, his "lil brother" would groom him-- it was really sweet.
