Upon Arrival

• Get the introductions over with as quickly and as quietly as possible
• Try to avoid loud noises, bright lights, too much handling and fondling of the new arrival along with overwhelming attention and expression of affection.  These may frighten the kitten.
• Remember that the new kitten has no idea where he or she is and who you are, friend or enemy
• It is your job to convince the newcomer that he or she is in good hands
• The very first thing to do is to allow the kitten to take a look and a sniff at the new house
• Do not give him the complete run of the house
• Take him to one room at a time, allow him to see the entire terriroory and range
• Do not allow the newcomer to roam from you or it may take hours to find him
• Show him his litter pan right away and teach him how to use it
