Prepare Your Home
1. Select a comfortable room in your home that can be your new cat’s safe space as they get settled in. Separation from busy areas in the home, and also other pets if applicable, is beneficial in the early stages of transition. Prepare this room ahead of picking up your cat and a smoother arrival to their new home is made possible.
2. Make sure you have the following on hand – food bowls, water bowls, litter tray, litter, scoop, soft cat bedding, scratcher post or cardboard scratcher, toys.
*If your new adopted cat is joining existing feline(s)in the home, consider that an additional litter box is required as not all cats choose to share litter boxes.
*If you are purchasing new food for your new adopted cat, start with a smaller bag and only a few tins of wet in case the brand/type of food isn’t a hit with your new pet.
