Hello from a new cat owner!


Hi guys!

I am hoping to be able to pick up my new cat, Poppy, from the RSPA in Warrington, this week!

Im so excited... Ive never owned a cat before although I have plenty of people around me who have.. Can anyone point me in the right direction of some threads of introducing a new cat? what to do to make it less stressful for her??

Thanks in advance, I'm sure I will be the poster of many stupid questions in the next few weeks

Liz

Hi Liz and welcome to Catsey as well as the wonderful world of cat ownership.
Give her a nice quiet room to begin with and let her explore at her own pace, I am sure she will settle in just fine. xxx

Just take things calmly with your new arrival, I hope you soon fall in love with each other!

Don't worry about asking questions, just yell if we can help with anything. All of us who are owned by cats had to start somewhere

Re: Hello from a new cat owner!


Welcome to Catsey, look forward to hearing all about your new addition.
If you do a search of the forum I'm sure you will find plenty of advice.
Mine would be to make sure she has places to hide and feel safe.
