First off, I just want to say how very sorry I am to hear on the loss of your beautiful girl Chloe. I didn't know. I hate to admit it, but out of your crew, she was my favorite.
Rest in Peace dear Chloe, you were so loved and will never be forgotten.

Secondly, you have gotten some wonderful advice from everyone and don't worry about her not using the litter box on her own right now. Practically every rescue I have brought into the house, took anywhere from 2-3 days before they used the litter box. It's good that she does use it when you put her in there and before you know it, she will use it on her own.

It took my foster feral kittens less than 2 weeks to come out of their shell, and from what you just wrote, it sounds like Nikki will take less time.

Good luck with her and pleeeeaaassseeee, can we see some pictures of her.

As for the litter box.....maybe she needs it to be in a different location. Place it near to a favorite hiding spot. For example, if she likes the under of a bed, place it next to or UNDER the bed with her. Make it as convenient as possible for her.

You sound to me like you know what you are doing and have the situation under hand if you got her to purr.. That is GREAT!

I found this.. This is one we had in the pillow case..

She is a very beautiful cat and I'm sure she will do just fine with all the love you will give her.

Chloe was very special to us...We miss her dearly...She reminded me of your Nugget...I have say he is my fave!! She was finally diagnosed with FIP after all of the time and money was spend trying to keep her alive... FIP was aweful and I only hope we never have to deal with that again with one of the others.. Especially Paris due to her being an asian breed they say they are a little more prone to that I guess?? She spent the most time with Chloe while she was sick...And me when we had to deal with the loss of dear Chloe...Paris was always there... My husband took it the hardest since siamese tend to stick to one human Chloe LOVED him with all she had and she fought a really tough battle she will truely be missed...We are hoping with Nikki that we are able to get her to be the kitty of my hubby he misses Chloe so bad...He has already found that Nikki is already trusting him a little bit more each day. So he spends a tremendous amount of time alone with her....

Thanks for all the advice all of the ideas has help a ton!! Thank You!!

My deepest sympathy to you on the loss of your dear Chloe. Rest in peace, beautiful girl, you are loved so much.

Awwww, hello there, Nikki! What a cute, sweet face you have! When you are all ready to come out of your hidey spot, your mom is going to give you one of these from me: *kiss* Thank you for peeking out and letting mom take your picture! I hope you have a very long, happy life together! And just one more: *kiss*

Nikki is very beautiful.

We've had several scared cats in our place, the most recent one was Ozzy. We kept him in the bathroom for a little while to get him used to sounds and our Little Man Hermes loves to go into the bathroom with us so we would let him go in and we would show Ozzy how much Hermes loves to be petted.

Then after a while we would open up the bathroom door and let him come out on his own. That worked pretty well plus it gave our guys a chance to meet him and for him to come out at his own pace.

Now with doing that we had to work with him and I would tell him over and over that it's ok when I was coming near him and alot of times I would tell him to stay and that it was ok. He still gets scared from time to time with new people but he's doing so well now and he loves the attention.

Everyone else gave you great advice and just take time with her and she will come around. Each cat is different.

Take care and she is just gorgeous.
