My Cat Tried to Escape After We Moved

Moving with a cat is basically a hostage situation. You think you’re stressed? Try explaining to your cat why their entire universe smells like cardboard and strangers. Here’s what actually worked for me: Microchip your furry escape artist. If they bolt, at least you have a fighting chance. Update your info, or you’re just microchipping a ghost. Collar with your number. Old school, but if your cat is a runner, you need all the help you can get. On moving day, lock them in a room with their stuff. Blanket, toys, snacks. Put a sign on the door. Threaten anyone who opens it. At the new place, keep them in one room for a few days. Let them sniff everything. Don’t panic if they hide for hours. They’re plotting. Gradually open up the house. Two weeks minimum before they go outside. No exceptions. Trust me, patience and paranoia are your best friends here. #CatMovingTips #PetParentLife #MovingHouse #Pets #Cats
