Rescue Cat Hopefully Coming Home Tomorrow

[francis223]

We have passed a home check with Cats Protection and we meet the cats tomorrow to hopefully bring our new family member home.

I need some advice on a safe room to help the cat settle in. We have a three bed home (our bedroom, baby's bedroom, husband's office), and downstairs we have a kitchen with double doors into garden, living room and small downstairs loo. So I have no idea which room we can use as a safe room. Has anyone got an ideas?

Shshhhh, I tell my cat all cats sleep in the utility room.

Of course she's sleeping upstairs with you!

I've tried her with some Nature's Menu (both in a separate bowl alongside the Felix and mixed together) but she's not having any of it. She ate the Felix around the Nature's Menu in the mixed bowl. Little monkey.

She's also getting desperate for a roam around outside. She's been meowing at us and leading us to the patio doors constantly this evening

Seniorboy is now pretty well exclusively on Nature's Menu - apart from some cold meat as snacks. I just put the stuff down with the Felix and he seemed to take to it.

Of course, I now have some boxes of Felix to find a home for.

Clever girl! "human, open this door"

Our lovely girl has settled in so well. I made the mistake of buying Felix cans this evening instead of pouches, she is refusing the canned stuff. Should I rush out and get pouches for her tea or will she be okay until morning?

We have had her three weeks on Saturday and she is longing to go outside. Can we allow her into the garden without having her second injection? I'm actually going to start her injection programme again with our vets. In that case, does she need to stay in for another three plus weeks until she is fully covered?

I'd ask the vet, you'd kick yourself if she got ill.

Cans eh?

I know, I feel such a fool. I've learnt my lesson.

Anyone notice a trend here? So unfair. I'm the one she pesters every morning at 6am to feed her and scoop her poop. She saves all her cuddles for my DH however.
