moving soon! how will the cats react?

Silly question... but we're going to be moving soon to a new house and i was curious as to the behavior i can expect from our two cats. Our one cat Tiger is a year and a half old and he adjusts easily. But we have a 5 month old kitty that has never even been in the car before (well except to the vets). So i'm just curious... what can i expect?

Re: moving soon! how will the cats react?

my cats were a little freaked when they saw the house empty and we put them in there carrier. My one cat cryed for about three days until we got all the boxes unpacked then she was fine. the other two were like whatever they didn't seem to mind the change.

Re: moving soon! how will the cats react?

I think each cat will react differently. When we moved, our kittens wouldn't come out of their carriers. When they finally did, they his for two days.
My older two came right out, explored and claimed their spots.

You should put the carriers on the floor with their doors open so the cats can come out when they are ready. Once they do come out, spend some time with them as they look around.

One of our kittens kept following me to the bedroom and then forgetting to follow me out. I'd hear him crying after a few minutes and find him wandering the bedroom meowing.

Good luck!!
