I'm moving soon into an apartment with my mom and my cat is moving with me, but she has a brother who is staying with the family I'm living with. I don't want her to be too stressed over moving, and I could really use some tips. Help me
Can put all her stuff in the apartment before you take her in, so her scent is around the place? I'd also just keep her in one room initially, with lots of things she knows. Make sure she has hidey-holes. If you can manage to get a Feliway diffuser it can be really useful.
Thank you for the Ideas on that. It'll help. We have a sun room to put her in, and She has her favorite box she always plays in so I feel more confident that she'll be ok now. I'll have to look into the Feliway diffuser for her.
Well today is Moving Day I'll be sure to update hows shes doing as soon as I can. maybe I'll post some pictures. She's been climbing all over the boxes all yesterday and today.
She handled the move really well! I was surprised on how well she handled the car ride. She basically slept the whole way. When she got to the house she was more curious than anything. I got her a cat tree and she was almost to small to climb it! But shes really happy now thank you for all your help!
I think she handled it really well. She fell asleep in the carrier on the way to the apartment. She became, dare I say, happier after we moved. She became more active and loving. She stopped hiding in everything.
