Cat Minding Canberra
If you're thinking about hiring a cat mover, there are many things to consider before making any decisions. Here we look at what makes a good cat mover and how to get the best results from your move.
When moving house, cats tend to become stressed and anxious. The first thing to think about is whether you need a full service or partial service. A full service includes everything needed to transport your cat including food, litter trays, bedding, toys, carrier and more. Partial services include items such as food and litter but may also leave out other items like toys and carriers.
You should also make sure that your cat has been spayed or neutered prior to the move. Many cat owners don't realise that cats can develop health problems after being spayed or neutered. Spaying or neutering helps prevent certain cancers and diseases. Cats who aren't spayed or neutered often develop tumours and cysts on their ovaries. These conditions can cause serious medical issues and sometimes death. So, if you haven't already done so, make sure your cat gets spayed or neutered before the move.
It's important to note that while cats are generally pretty calm animals, they still require attention during the move. They might seem fine when you pack up your belongings, but once you've left the house, they could start acting strangely. Your cat needs to know where he/she is going and why. Make sure you explain the new environment to your cat. He/she might be scared and confused, especially if you've moved interstate or overseas.
