At PAWS Adoption Center, we recommend that you setup a safe room for your new kitty. Change is frightening for cats, young and old… By placing them initially in a small starter room, like a small bedroom, big airy bathroom, or other room with a door you can close, will help them get used to a smaller space first.

Put all their kitty supplies in the room.
Set up their litter box with litter in it.
Check to make sure windows any any other possible escape routes.
Unplug or securely tape down any electrical cords.

Remember to take it slow, and your new feline baby will love you and trust you for it.
