Re: Traumatised Cat

Mollycat, I suspect you're right that there is more of a truce going on here and they seem to tolerate rather than seek each other's company- they tend to sleep in different areas of the house generally.

Re: Traumatised Cat

Lucy is showing great improvement, thanks! She doesn't sleep behind the sofa anymore (she's back on the foot of our bed at night, as per normal!) and has shown more confidence overall.

Our 10 year old female cat has been hiding up behind the sofa now for approaching six weeks ( well before firework night ) and shows no signs of improvement. We have taken her to the vets twice, and she has been examined by two different vets and they say there is no obvious damage or physical probl...
