This poor little black cat I got a few weeks ago has been hiding under the sofa the whole time.
It only comes out at night when I go to sleep to eat and use the litter box.
Recently, the litter has been smelling really strong so I think maybe the cat is not feeling the best. I think I’ll give it another week and if it still smells then I will have to take the cat to the vet. I’m trying to avoid this because it isn’t cheap but if the cat is sick then I’ll need to take him in. I think the air quality in my house could be improved by getting some kind of air purifier to help remove the smell but I need to get to the heart of the problem and why is it smelling so much. I clean the litter a few times a day but it shouldn’t smell this bad. Maybe I can run my central heat and air unit and see if the HEPA filter helps to remove some of the odor. I feel sorry for this poor cat that just stays under the sofa all by itself instead of coming out and playing and having fun. It’s own fear has made it a prisoner. Maybe this is a good lesson about life for me too, don’t let fear paralyze you from living a better life. I think my HVAC system can remove the smell so I will give it a shot today and let it run all day to clean the air.
