Hello,
Im hoping someone can possibly help me
My girlfriend has had to givup her cat for various reasons... so i took him on.
This is him.... Name tilly, Age : 1 yr . lives out doors but comes in 4 times a day for a meal.
what im worried about is how to help him adapt to his new environment....
My mother used to breed/ adopt cats during my child hood so im a bit clued up on the caring aspect.. but i dont know how to treat him.
hes used to everything outside but im worried about letting him out on his first day.
so far so good, been here about 4 hours in my bedroom as its a very big house with 7 people in it including a 12yr old female torti cat, and hes only been sitting at the window meowing, hasnt eaten, hasnt drunk, hasnt used the litter.
Should i keep him in my room untill he settles then let him explore the house then out doors,?
How would i intoduce the 2 cats?
How should i get him to use a litter tray in the mean time?
Should i get him a lead and let him out several times a day?
my bedroom window is on the 1st floor, should i get him a ramp leading into the garden>?
Many thanks people
