Hello All,
I have two cats, one who just turned 4 years this month (woot!), and another rescue who is going to be 2 years this year. Our youngest was kept at a rescue as a feral kitten. She was adopted and returned because she was terrified of humans. When she was about 8 months old I adopted her from the rescue. The bottom line is, I had the patience and love to give her the time she needed. Both of my cats get along and are loving- I'm very lucky.
Starting in the beginning of April I will be having all the carpet replaced, all the tile and grout cleaned, and a good amount of new furniture delivered. We already live in a small 2 bedroom apartment. Even though my baby does wonderful around her family; strangers, or even vacuuming can make her hide for a good 8 hours- so I am so worried about what this will do. When she goes to the vet she gets so afraid she loses controls of her bowels and wets herself, it breaks my heart. I would be afraid of putting her in the bathroom with my other little one because our place is so small it would be loud... I would appreciate and ideas or suggestions.
