Bonding with your
new companion:
The first two weeks are very important to
your long term relationship with your new feline companion. Do not
let the cat outside until you have formed a very strong bond with her.
The best way to form a strong bond is to:
 |
Provide a safe covered hiding
place for them until they are comfortable with their new
surroundings. Keep them in one room until they feel comfortable
enough to go out into the next room. |
 |
Have food, clean water and
litter box available at all times. |
 |
Reward him/her with a treat
every time she comes to you. Use a tartar control treat like
Pounce, it is good for their teeth and they like it. Or if they are
very afraid, offer them a small bite of tuna every time you
approach. |
 |
Play with them; spend as much
time as possible letting her know she can trust and count on you. |
 |
She will be solely dependent
on you for everything, food, water, safe shelter and companionship.
Don’t let her down. |
 |
Never raise your voice, or
scare her. Let her learn she can trust you. |
 |
Never let her outside at
night, that is when danger is around. |
