how can I calm down my scared cat?
Ever since my cat woke up from a loud noise of a heavy plank falling, his been acting too scared of almost any sound be it just a piece of paper moving or plastic raper sound or even a dried leaf on the floor!!! He calms down a bit when I pat him or lay down with him, but later its the same.
Actually this has happened before about two months ago too, but he became normal later say in nearly a week!!
I asked the vet for any medicine for anxiety or fear but he told me there is no such thing...and told me to stay with Nayla to calm him.
So I tried homeopathy, Kali phos and argentum nitrum 30, both seems to worked last time.
Does anyone know the reason or how I can make him understand that its OK even when he is alone !

Some cats are naturally very skittish. My cat will freak out from loud talking (not yelling, just talking a bit loudly), people laughing, or even people just walking around more than she likes.
When she gets scared, she seeks out one of her hiding spots to hide in and reassure herself. So give your cat places that it can hide in, preferably places that are small enough that a person couldn't get in there easily. Like a small closet, the nook inside cat trees, behind or under furniture, and so forth.
When your cat is in a hiding spot, don't bother it. Just let it naturally come out on its own. Ignore it and do something else, quietly. If the cat sees you're waiting for it just outside its hiding spot, it may feel cornered and parodoxically it'll take even longer to get it to come out.
