What do you do after you get a cat?
A good place to start when you get a new cat is to give it some time to adjust to its new surroundings. Cats generally don't like change, and although it is probably in …a better situation after you bring it home, it will most likely be a little shy at first. I like to create a "safe" room when I bring a new cat home. This would ideally be a smallish room with places for the cat to hide (even something as simple as a cardboard box or two). Try not to disturb the cat too much while it is in there, and give it some time to adjust to it's surroundings. Also, you should make sure that you show it where its food and litter box are. After it seems to have adjusted to the safe room, you may want to begin letting it into more and more of your home. It may take a while for your cat to be completely comfortable in your home, but it will be well worth your time to take it slowly. (MORE)
