As a cuddly pet, cats are more nervous and prone to stress reactions to external stimuli. For cats, the stress reaction has a lot to do with the change of environment. For cats that have arrived in a new environment, owners must pay close attention to the state of adaptation to prevent cats from hurting themselves and others due to stress reactions, and in serious cases, endangering the lives of cats. So how do we go about calming it down?
The first sip of water and food after the cat arrives in a new environment is very important. Put the cat in a quiet room after it arrives in a new environment and do not expose it to too much outside stimulation. Be sure not to let the children in the house play around. In a quiet environment the cat will slowly relax and can then be fed. If the cat has not eaten for a day after arriving in a new environment, you should pay attention to it and take it to the hospital for examination.
