My cat hid under the bathtub for 3 months when I first got him. It took a year to get him to sit on the couch with me. Now it’s 3 years later, and we’re best cuddle buds. It takes time but the rewards of loving a scaredy pet are HUGE.
 our dogs terrified of our cat. she's been here for 10+ years with no other pets. it took her a year to warm up to me. i have no idea what happened between the two of them, but he is terrified of her. he won't go near her. if he sees her, he'll crawl to the door to go out for a walk. if she hisses at him he runs and hides in the bedroom. he was fine when he came home then something happened and now he won't leave the bedroom normally. totally fine outside the apartment though. he's got along way to go but this is a lot of progress for him!
