thanx once again for the advice everyone has given me. i have kept christopher confined to the kitchen with his basket, toys and litter tray. i have spent most of my time in there sitting in the corner with a cup of tea. he is letting me lift him and pet him and this morning he was crying for me to lift him. however he did not come to me directly but trying to have patience and give him time. still ultra nervy tho and i have to be very cautious how i move incase i scare him. my parents came to visit tonight and he just retreated to the basket as if to say 'you can look but dont touch'.
then i had my dinner which my mum brought up for me which just happened to be salmon and prawns and the little tike came right over and helped himself must be something to do with being born in a skip i suppose. then he proceeded to play with his toys and use the litter tray when i was in the room.
have high hopes for him now but can anyone advise how i get him to socialise with other humans that come into my home.. do you think he will always just let me handle him and shy away from others or will that come to him eventually as he gets to trust me more???????????????? any help gratefully accepted.............
