Thread: Scared Coon :(

Hi,

I bought a Maine Coon from a breeder on Sunday. When I took him home he was of course instantly scared and didnt want to be touched. However, now he craves attention. If he cannot see me for more than a second he screams. I have never had a cat cry like he does. I have another cat (not a MC) so he is separated in my room, as long as I am there he is fine, but the second I step out he screams. I cannot get him to stop crying. I have tried several toys, but all he wants is a human.

I live in a condo where I will get in trouble if I cannot get him to stop screaming.

Last night I played with him for 7 hours before bed, and he still screamed even though he was in the room with me. I am ok if he wants to sleep with me, as long as he does some sleeping - but it seems like all he wants to do is play race car across my face. Then, when he is back on the floor, he screams.

:( I feel like I cannot make him happy. I put him in my bathroom while I cleaned my room up and he peed everywhere and screamed louder when the door slammed.

I understand he is a kitten, but I just want to make him more comfortable. MY adult cat does not like him yet and is still hissing at him.

Any advice ?
