Question

How can I help my cat (21 years old) adjust to a new house, when we move? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 21 years and 5 months old

Once you get to the new house, it is recommended to restrict her to one room for 2-3 days and it is also recommended to not let her outside the house for two weeks. keep the cat carrier open in the new house as it will be a comfort zone for her during the first 24 hours. try bringing as much from her stuff as you can to the new house (water and food bowls, scratching polls...).
