Since spring started, Teddy's been freaking out so often from the noises of the wind and God knows what else!
He’s been spending all his days and nights hiding and shaking. And no matter what we try to do to calm him down and make him feel secure, we miserably fail.
Yesterday at dawn, Teddy showed up and sat with me in the room uncertain if he’s doing the right thing. When I got up and headed to the kitchen, he came after me, I only noticed when he wrapped his tail against my legs over and over. I kept moving from my room to the kitchen and he unlikely kept following me here and there. And finally when I sat down, he rested in front of me observing my next move. I couldn’t help it, so I rested beside him on the floor and started to stroke and play with him.
I know that all of this sound pretty normal, but that’s not the way Teddy is. He’s the kind of cat that likes to be left alone most of the time, that doesn’t like to be touched much. His fear of people, noises, even cats sometimes makes him the most unsociable cat I’ve ever seen.
Yesterday was unusual of him. It made me feel that even though he’s always not around, he’s always pulling away, he’s always hiding and wants to be left alone, all of this attitude has been always out of fear which he can’t control, maybe he’s too weak to control it, but after all he’s a cat which would make him at this point almost helpless.
Yesterday he wanted my company and was dying for me to play with him. He needed my affection and passion, he needed lots of feelings he’s been missing coz he’s always alone.
I was dying to sleep, but never wanted to leave him alone at this moment. I stayed with him till as expected some loud wind blew, and he was all freaked out again and took off running for some place to hide.
