“Prepare the home beforehand, make sure everyone knows to play it very gently to start with, and allow the cat to decide when it’s the right time to make friends with you,” Vicky says. “If you push it too soon, the cat will feel uncomfortable and under pressure. So my advice would be to have patience and be prepared to wait a couple of weeks to see a newly adopted cat settle. There are, of course, some that will arrive in your home, take a quick tour round and settle on your sofa as if they have lived there for years. They really are so individual, it’s hard to predict.”
“Cats have very different needs to humans, so I think we owe it to them to find out as much as we possibly can about what they require from us and from our homes and make sure it happens,” Vicky included.
