i know everyone keeps suggesting quiet but i'm telling you he is not used to that. he is used to noise, ringing phones, lots of voices, cats crying, cages being cleaned, loud radios. the quiet here seemed to really scare him. when turned on the tv and we are up moving around he seems calmer. i also would think sensory overload but he seems happier that way. maybe i'm wrong.
Well, this is making some sense to me. He cannot see, so he probably depends on noises to have some orientation in his environment. I figure this is why silence scares him.
