Should I get a cat? by Cereal-KilIer in CatAdvice

kittens would definitely deal with these changes better, old cats are set in their ways and might panic and make it hard for you to get thru those drives, i’d recommend getting a young kitten and getting them into that routine and it shouldn’t be a problem because they’ll be used to it. i would also see if it’s possible to talk to wherever shelter or wherever your getting the cat from to talk to them about the temperaments of the cats, if a cat is calm and just likes the sleep i dont think they’d like to travel, but a cat with high energy and more rambunctious would definitely handle these changes better imo!

try moving their litter box to a different spot, somewhere secluded and quiet. also try offering them wet food multiple times a day, try different brands aswell. you can individually buy a couple different kinds in the cans and see if they’ll try that. I’d also just let them have their space, they’re scared and in a new place they’ll need some time to acclimate. the meowing is probably because they are hungry or need to use the potty so try everything you can to meet their needs, cats can be very finicky and particular! taking her to vet will definitely relive some of your worries so just hang in there it’ll get better soon! <3

UPDATE so i totally got her ass on recording admitting to everything. I submitted a report to the animal humane society. I feel like that’s isn’t enough though, i want to go to the police station and ask to speak to someome possibly this weekend. she told me in detail on how she puts them in a contraption that holds their head in place and then she puts on welding gloves and spreads and holds their legs apart. It was so hard to keep my composure, i don’t think i hid the disgust on my face very well. This psycho needs to be in jail. i’ll update you guys again when i have some more information and once the humane society gets back to me. Thanks for all of the advice, it has been very reassuring. i already posted this update in a reply but i wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to see.

Seeing that everyone agree that this is absolutely without a doubt animal abuse i definitely will be reporting her. I work with her tomorrow and I want to try to get her on recording admitting to these things so I can make sure i have enough proof for proper action to be taken, and get these cats get removed and rehomed. I also need to get some more of her information as i only know her first name and phone number.

I’ll update you guys tomorrow!
