Questions about adopting a Cat
Hello everyone, I’ve decided to adopt a cat and have a few questions.
I’m already familiar with caring for cats. Back in India, I had a rescue cat, and my dad runs an animal rescue shelter, so I’m pretty confident when it comes to handling and taking care of them.
What I’m unsure about is the norm of having a cat in Canada. Back home, all the rescue cats were outdoor cats and roamed freely. Here, the cat would be indoors.
So what’s it like having an indoor cat? It’ll be a fixed 2 yo male cat. Do they scream or constantly meow when they want to go outside? Right now I work from home, so that’s not an issue, but what if I start working from the office? Do they usually just chill indoors by themselves for hours?
Also, what happens if I go on a trip? Are there services that take care of cats while away?
I know these questions are silly, but I want to make sure I do everything right for my cat and don’t cause any trouble for my neighbors since I live in an apartment.
Also, any pet insurance recommendations, and how much does it usually cost? And any other suggestions are welcome! Thank you 😁
