I'll be moving house soon and taking my two cats. They've always lived at my current address (they're about 9 years old) and will probably be terribly spooked by the change (one is particularly nervous and prone to wander); there's a big dog in the house next to our new property, which will be something new. I'd be gutted if we lost them!
We're on holiday the week before we move them and they'll be in a cattery for that week and, presumably, somewhat disorientated when the move into the new house.
We'll be having them microchipped just in case. Presumably it's a case of keeping them in for a couple of weeks and letting them out for their first explore when they're hungry but are there any other tips for a trauma free relocation?
