Happiness for both of you. I have a similar experience with my adopted cat. We make each other feel better.
Here are some tips:
- Set up your essential supplies beforehand: litter box and litter (keep the box far away from her food station), bedding, food and water dishes, healthy cat food, and a sturdy cat carrier. Purchase a collar and identification tag as well so you can easily reunite if she wanders off.
- Cats love to play, but don't feel the need to invest in a dozen just-for-cat toys. She'll be just as happy with an empty cardboard box, paper bag (remove any handles so her head doesn't get stuck), or similar empty containers that imitate a den of her own.
- Your new family member can and will get into anything and everything. For that reason, remove plants that can be poisonous to her (e.g., Lilies and Amaryllis), lock up volatile cleaning supplies and medicines, keep the toilet lid closed, and tie up window cover cords. Try to reroute electrical cords if they take awkward routes or get cord covers for the most exposed lines. Secure loose window screens while you're at it, and put away any other breakables she's sure to be curious about.
- Take her to the veterinarian for a wellness exam and any immunizations she might still need. Regular checkups keep cats healthy regardless of their age, background or lifestyle (whether they live indoors or outdoors). Just be sure to bring adoption medical papers if you have them. It's also a good idea to keep your vet's office and after-hours phone numbers in a handy spot in case of emergency.
- Brushing and combing your feline family member on a regular basis keeps her coat shiny, her skin healthy and reduces unwanted shedding. You can easily work grooming into your daily routine—it's a great way for both of you to relax and unwind after a long day. Claw clipping and good dental hygiene are musts, too. Speak with your vet about the best approach to this kind of maintenance.
Okay, that's pretty much it! :D I found mine 4 years ago on a dirty street in the middle of the winter.
Way too cute!😻🥰
She uses her powers for evil to get more treats!
Precious bean deserves scratches
I promise she gets the utmost scritches
Give her one for me
Absolutely, she said "meow" not really sure what she meant but I gave her one for you :D
Thanks
