give it some time
usually catfish when are new to surroundings they tend to fast for a few days before they accept any food at all
wait for a few more days

yeah i almost didnt believe this when i read it. Give it a few days to settle, and it'll eat your finger if you give it a chance.

Feed him after 'lights out' or use blue moonlighting

How about some tank details, Size, Params, Temp... Has it been cycled?

Also make sure you have a GOOD Lid on that tank as Walking cats are called Walking cats for a reason... they WILL go for a Walk on ya... when you least expect it to..

make sure you buy the brand new marineland leash. It comes in a variety of colors, and is ideal for walking your fish around the block.

Sorry i had to do it.
