When we moved last year our cat stayed between the washer and dryer for the first 48 hours we were in our new home. I know she explored her new home at night while we were asleep as evidenced by her use of her litter box. She also had never done stairs before. She had the new experience of going up and down a flight of stairs and it was quite amusing to watch until she got used to them. By day three she was more at ease with her new surroundings and now she rules the roost:)!

The comment about "western world" was spot on :D I live in Russia, and gabapentin here is _not_ easy to find, _not_ cheap and it does _not_ go in tiny little capsules... It is also a prescription med, and vets are hesitant to give you an official prescription paper because it's a human med. Therefore, it's not really a go with a compounding pharmacy (and those are not really a big thing here). Luckily, I found a kind pharmacist who sold it to me when my kitty needed it. So, THEN, I had to open the capsule, dissolve the powder in normal saline and measure the dosage using a syringe... It is not quite easy to manage the dosage this way, so the next day, I was absolutely terrified for ~20 seconds when I woke up and found my cat sleeping on my chest (she never falls asleep on me) and not showing any reaction when I'm trying to wake her up... She did wake up eventually, so I wish I knew that gabapentin is a _really_ good sedative 😅 So, just a warning...)))

Good to know! It will probably be like that in the US pretty soon. Gabapentin is unfortunately abusable and very much overprescribed in the US... most states are beginning to keep track of it the same way we keep track of amphetamine and opioid prescriptions. I wouldn't be surprised if it is reclassified as a controlled substance in the next few years.

I've moved cats many times, some easy local moves and some across several states. Every cat seems to handle it differently. One cat loves to explore the new space, and it's fun to watch the "hey! I know that piece of furniture!" as he finds familiar things in a new place. Another cat stays in "low-flying aircraft" mode for a while, so we keep his new environment small and secure. We'll be moving next year, and the youngest cat will get to experience this. Thanks for all the great suggestions!

He did really well on the plane when I moved here 5 years ago, but now he is 12 and has earlyish stage chronic kidney disease and will likely have recurring calcium oxylate bladder stones. So I'm worried it might not be as easy this time and I don't want to put his health at risk. Can you please talk about when it is best to take your cat with you and when it may be better to find them a new loving home?? It would break my heart to let someone else love Sir Henry, but I want to do what is best for him. He's a pretty anxious kitty. What is more stressful for a cat: a transatlantic flight plus new home or a new home plus new humans?? :(

I'd rather argue that collars make your cat more visible to cars and with a bell protect wildlife from predation so they should be used, but you MUST use a special cat collar because it will have a quick release catch that will unclip if the cat gets stuck on something (like a protruding nail, or a hawk).

My cat wasnt exactly from the city, but a kinda suburban area, previously a stray, but that cat could take very good care of himself even after I moved rurally. He knew how to avoid predators pretty well, and cars, and how to butter people up. It helped though that we had dogs and had them outside frequently so I'm sure their scent and presence helped keep the larger predators away. Had to get a ten pack of tearaway collars for my current cat though. Little shit has either figured out how to pull them off on purpose or he has an amazing knack for getting stuck.

My personal experiences with my Cat's moving are....interesting, for example I have two both female "Callie and Layla" Callie is a very talkative outgoing Cat and how we keep her out of the way so to speak is, she LOVES boxes, so we take a box she marked as her favorite and we set it out nearby so she can relax there nap etc...Layla on the other hand is the opposite she finds the darkest place in the house which is usually a closet and just stays there for hours probably cursing our existence so I simply move her litter water and food into the closet so she can function effectively while I do other tasks. Other then that very good resource to have, I do have one question though: Any tips/tricks for Cats who like to hide behind objects? when I ask this I am refering to pull out drawers, because what happens is one of them likes to climb into drawers then go to the very back so I can't close it, and I basicly have to wait until they decide to climb out.

Thank you for another video full of great tips! Two months ago we moved houses with our dog and our three cats. We were so anxious about them being all stressed out but with proper preparation in the end it wasn't that bad. A few weeks before the move we started setting up a base camp in our old flat. We chose a spare bedroom and put a scratching tree, lots of fluffy pillows and blankets, a litter box and their toys in there. We also gradually started to move their dishes towards that room until we eventually fed them inside. Feliway was also plugged in. On the day of the move (we had a moving company) the pets would stay in basecamp room and my husband and I would take turns on hanging out with them in that room or being with the movers. At the end of the day my husband would take some items from base camp (like pillows and blankets, that had their scent on them) to the new flat while I stayed with our pets in basecamp in the old flat. He set up a another base camp in the new house, plugged in Feliway and put all of the things from the old flat there, so when the cats moved in they would immediately feel at home. The rest we did just like you said. We kept the new basecamp for about two weeks, the door was always open and our cats would explore the new place on their own. They really settled in great and luckily there was no need to give them any medication. Only one of our cats caused us a all a few restless nights by being up at night and meowing but he eventually calmed down. Also, thanks for mentioning the point of routine. Cats are such creatures of habits so it really helps to keep as many parts of the day to day routine constant. I really think that part also made a huge difference! Loved seeing Mr. Pirate and Clawdia in such good spirits. Good luck with your move!

Aw man! I moved last weekend. I'm a first-time cat-haver and Captain was definitely freaked out as soon as I started packing things up haha. She's settling in though!

@@HelpfulVancouverVet do you know whether Zylkene can be used as well? My CKD cat is highly strung even while permanently on Feliway. I'm not planning to move any time soon, but even vet visits can send her into a stress loop for days...

Oh yes, I often use it together with feliway. They are both fairy low power interventions but get the job done, or at least reduce the dose of other medications needed to control anxiety. We often give gabapentin to cats known to hate vet visits before their consult. Makes life better and almost always works... got one cat recently we gave like a qadruple dose to and it was still lunging at us through the carrier trying to kill us, but this was a particularly harsh case and was ruined by being taken to a terrible facility where they abused it prior to being brought to me. So sad...

Years ago I had to move about 3 hours away...I had a very quirky cat at the the time....during the drive she busted out of her carrier and the only place she felt safe was on my feet...I drove a stick back then...it was a looooong drive 😬

Thank you so much for your videos. Sorry about Mister Pirate's arthritis. So glad you are together. We had a deaf cat that we moved three times. The last time, we stayed at someone's house overnight waiting for our furniture. We left Cleo overnight at the new house. When we got back in the morning, we could not find her anywhere in this empty house! Opened every cabinet, searched closets, tried to find any way she could escape. Of course calling and noise did no good. Finally, we found her in the fire place! She had slipped behind the screen. Our white cat was somewhat grey until we could get her cleaned up.

My cat ended up with an inflamed bladder because of stress and couldn't urinate but would spray everywhere. Emergency vet and $1500 later he's on anxiety medication to help because of strays in the area. He's such a confident, happy man now. We tried feliway, had 4 of them all over our house and it did nada for him. Was a bit bummed it didn't work on him.

I moved 5000km with my cat, 2 days in a ferry and 1000km in the car, and he had zero problems during the whole time! Other cats in ferry were scared and shishing at everyone passing by, and my boy always got up yawning and stretching, like "hi mommy, can we go for a walk now?". In the car he was watching passing cars and sleeping. But he's a special boy. So brave and curious, big boy, grew up with dogs and is more like a dog himself too. 😊❤

My neighbors once had a cat (one of my best friends) but moved into a house 1km away a few years ago to save money. They had a big yard they didn't feel like taking care of, but the cat really loved staking out his territory there. . When the neighbors moved away, I was told the cat was super stressed as he tried to explore his new home. According to them, he kept trying to find the old trees, look for the old staircase, and repeatedly yowl at night. . Then he disappeared. He was very much an outdoor but could always find his way home. . The only problem was that home was his old home. I kept finding the cat staking out the old house and the big yard for weeks on end. . Not the best move for the cat, but I was happy to be close to my friend all the time.. . PS Thanks for all the cat videos. They're informative and wholesome and quite calming!
