Hi Everyone Life can be stressful sometimes.
My aunt is going into assisted living (suddenly) and I'm taking her cat. I took my mom's cat, Lucky, last Fall, and he's become part of the household very nicely. This little cat, Princess, is a sweet and mild-mannered little one. I took her to the vet today for a checkup and unfortunately he spied a growth on her tongue. He's biopsied it (so we will know) and I'm picking her up in a couple hours. The thing is, this is very sudden and I haven't had much time to prepare. And I'm going to be gone 12 or more hours a day next week (eek). I can put her in the spare bedroom until the Felv test comes back. But I don't want her to be freaked out or too frightened. I'm hoping that instead of a three weeks, I can try to integrate her in a week or two. This will make FIVE indoor cats for me. I've never had so many. The vet said, "Well, four or five isn't much different." Bless him. What's the conventional wisdom out there? Leave her in the room 7-14 days, or longer? Thanks for your input!
