Oh man I do hope you don’t have to worry about that again for some time. You are a great kitty momma - saw your text on the other thread and just want to reassure you that you are a loving parent and your kitties know and feel that love. They do hate change and that can’t be helped at times but you did do whatever you could to make this transition easier Grateful you were able to take the day off tomorrow to help them acclimate to the new home
Thank you. Water has left the crate and is currently hiding and Bird sniffed him out. I hope they are going to be okay. I super appreciate you and this supportive place.
