Tips for helping your pet adapt to a new location.
Moving is a stressful situation not only for you but also for your pets.
With a competent approach and a great desire, moving with a dog or cat will be as stressful as possible for both you and your pet.
How to help your dog adapt?
- Let the animal into the room and let it explore everything.
- Show the dog where his place, water and food bowl are.
- It may not immediately remember where everything is, so in the early days, reward him with treats.
- To help your dog adapt more quickly, put familiar things and toys on his bed.
- Don’t forget to pay attention to your dog, communicate with him, play with him, and treat him to treats, as this will help him perceive his new home as a positive and pleasant place.
How to help a cat adapt?
- Prepare a place for your pet where there will be familiar things and smells.
- Try to stick to your regular daily schedule, feed your pet at the same time.
- Use familiar bowls and the old litter box.
- Pay more attention to your pet after the move.
- Due to stress, the pet may stop eating and hide from people – it takes time to get used to and settle in a new area.
- The cat may come out of its hiding place at night, so food should be in the bowl at all times.
If the animal does not recognize the litter box or refuses to eat, be sure to consult a veterinarian. The doctor can prescribe vitamins and a special diet to ensure the psychological comfort of the pet.
The main thing is to give your pet time to get used to the new place of residence and support it. Feeling your care and support, pets will get used to the new place and adapt much faster.
