I have recently allowed Lucky access to the whole top level (which includes my bedroom) as he has been good with his litter training. His little area where his hutch and toys are is next to the top of the stairs, so that's vicinity he tends to hang out most. So when I come up the stairs (walking or running) he seems to get startled very easily and begins to sprint. Sometimes into his cardboard box or under the table.
He does this fairly constantly and I feel quite bad about it. I'm not sure if this is harming our ability to bond. As it stands it is hard to bond with him as he seems to like to do his own thing most of the day unless I have food haha.
So any tips will do!
PS I have heavy feet so I make a fair bit of noise as I walk. Would have naturally thought that the noise would be easy enough for lucky to hear it and make the correlation that I am coming up.
Edit: He generally gets startled easily. I just got of my chair in my room and he run under my bed straight away.
