Hi, all,
I just adopted a mature male cat from a local cat rescue and he's settling in with me. (Just finished 1 week.). I"m trying to decipher his meowing habits. Sometimes it seems to be food-related, but sometimes he approaches my kitchen door and meows like he wants out.
Any suggestions? Still trying to make things calm and as stress-free for him as I can. He does still pace a bit but relaxes when he's on the kitchen table while I'm at my computer or in my lap in my recliner. lol. The vacuum cleaner was a new thing today, too.
Also, am I crazy to think boarding him for a few days while I go to a nephew's graduation would be ok? I was gone a couple days on a work trip and my folks fed him and checked on him. I was reading on the site about the stress boarding can bring.
