A cat with a good personality will fully adapt within a few hours of arriving home. Different cats have different adaptability and there are individual differences. Generally, young cats have stronger adaptability than adult cats. A new young cat may adapt in 2 to 3 days. The younger the cat, the stronger the adaptability. It may take about a week for adult cats to adapt.

Methods to help a newly arrived cat adapt quickly:

1. Have enough patience and love for the new cat.

2. Prepare a quiet place for it. It does not need a large space, but you must ensure that the space is relatively hidden and quiet. Then put in a litter box, food, and water so the kitten can feel relaxed. Don’t choose a location in an aisle where people come and go.

3. If you want the cat to like the new home more, it is best to put some toys that the cat likes in the cat’s activity area, or blankets that it used in the previous home. Arrange some scratching posts and other toys.

4. Interact and play with the cat more. This can also relieve the cat’s tension and make it relax.

5. Don’t change cat food immediately. Cats are generally picky eaters. If they choose one taste, they won’t be able to adapt to others. If you feed it new cat food, it may not want to eat it, so wait until the cat adapts to the environment, and then slowly mix the new cat food into the previous cat food.
