Being a new mom is a lot of work! She will likely adjust pretty quickly. However, there is a product called Feliway. It is a plug in diffuser or spray. It is a calming Pheromone that is helpful in any feline stress event. I would encourage you to try that and see how she does. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.
