Hello all,
I read around for some advice regarding introducing a kitten into a new home, but most that I could find applies when there are multiple cats/other animals in the home. It will only be Oogi at our place - please advise! We have a small house, only one level (no upstairs or downstairs) so I was wondering if I need to quarantine him for multiple days? The location where we are going to put his litter box and food is not going to be in the room where he would be quarantined - so the logistics of that choice is confusing to me. I figured we would bring him in, open the door to his travel kennel and watch him to see where he explores. All of his infrastructure will already be set up.
My breeder told me that Oogi is super outgoing and confident, so maybe there won't be much of an adjustment period. I'm pretty anxious about all this actually! I want to do it right.
PS - Will a 4 hour car ride be too long for Oogi without a potty break?
Thank you!
