We are taking home a 4yr old rescue cat on Saturday - she has been at the centre for over 3 months, apparently because people don't want black cats- she's petite & very sweet, crazy people!
I have a 5yr old & 9yr old who are v gentle but just dying to give lots of strokes- I keep trying to tell them she'll probably be quite anxious & shy at first & will need space & time.
What can I do to help her settle in and feel secure & safe in her new home? House is not big enough to give her a room of her own.
Any words of wisdom happily received.
