Getting started
What should I do on my cat’s first day at home?
Prepare one quiet room with food, water, a litter tray, a hiding place, a bed and a scratching surface. Let your cat leave the carrier in their own time, keep the household calm and expand access to the home gradually as confidence grows.
A good next step
- Keep doors, windows and escape routes secure.
- Keep food, water and the litter tray in separate areas.
- Update the microchip record with your current contact details.
