om... Just got a 5 year old female cat from the Cats Protection League. The cat had been living with an elderly lady but she recently had a stroke and had to give the cat up. The cat has always been an indoor/outdoor cat and we'd like to continue that (the house is in a small quiet village in North Wales). We have just received the cat on Monday and she's settle in remarkably quickly. She's very affectionate, eats well and uses the litter box and is no trouble. She does go to the door and meow like she wants to go out. I have always thought you needed to keep a cat indoors for a week or two when moving to a new house to get them acclimatized. But what is the actual time needed? We have a lockable cat flap so she could potentially come and go as she pleases but we don't want to unlock it until she's settled in. When should we unlock the cat flap? I always keep them in 3 weeks and make sure they are hungry before letting them out..... I normally stand outside with them at first, then call them in feed and do this over a few days... till you feel happy! but just make sure they are hungry before you let them out -- Luv'n'Stuff *~*SooZy*~* http://community.webshots.com/user/ragdollcatsuk |
