My 11 months old cat went missing when I moved to a new place (there was another cat on the property so older cat chased him away). He used to be a very affectionate and loving cat. He was suckling and enjoy being with me at all times (playing & suckling on my hand). He loved me to bits. He was a very timid cat and scared of everything (seriously even from birds). I found him a month later (took 150 fliers, contacting local animal rescue and veterinaries). He doesn't seem to remember me at all or any furniture. He is hiding most of the time and doesn't look like he wants to be in the same room with me. That's why I think he is traumatized as he was such a loving cat.
I know I should be patient and wait for him to come to me. But does anyone have any advice for my situation? It is really breaking my heart to see my beloved cat like this.
