First-Time Cat Pawrents: What to Expect in the First 30 Days

Bringing a cat home is exciting—but the first month is all about adjustment, patience, and trust-building.

What Happens in the First Month

- Cats may hide initially (this is normal

- Eating patterns may fluctuate

- Sleep schedules feel unusual (mostly nocturnal energy)

- Bonding happens slowly—but deeply

What Cats Really Need Early On

- Safe hiding spots

- Quiet environment

- Consistent routine

- Gentle interaction (never forced)

Cats don’t demand attention—they invite it over time.

Final Paw-thought

Trust grows quietly. One day, your cat chooses you—and that moment makes everything worth it.
