We just bought a house
and we move on Friday. I'm concerned with how Smudge will react.
He has serious abandonment issues, since his previous owners just kicked him out, and would ignore him when he meowed at the patio door for days before someone took him in. He doesn't like not being allowed in a room we're not in.
My parents are bringing a pet carrier for the weekend when we move. I don't really want to let him out of it in the new house because I don't want him running out the open door. But I'm also concerned that if I lock him in a room, he's going to stress out big time.
Anyone have any tips for making the move go smoothly for the little guy?
