Hi everyone!
I adopted a Savannah mix about a month ago. His name is Simba, and he is almost 8 years old. When we first brought him home, he had a huge problem with peeing only on our beds and he didn't have a BM for five days. After a vet visit, we discovered that Simba is starting to have fused vertebrae, which definitely explained his urinary issues. We have that all managed now, but I am starting to become concerned with his behavior.
Simba is not an active cat. He prefers to knead blankets and sleep on top of me, whenever I am sitting or laying down. He doesn't climb, doesn't scratch, doesn't play with any toys or look outside at our huge trees - basically anything we were told a Savannah will do, he doesn't do.
Should we be concerned? Or mindful that it's been a month and Simba is still transitional?
Thank you!
KJ and Simba
