When you bring a new cat home, everything in your house is new, strange, and full of potential dangers from their perspective. It is completely normal for them to be skittish or hide for the first few days. They are not being unfriendly. They are trying to survive in a space that does not feel safe yet.

This clip comes from the full episode “Bringing Home a New Cat? Build Trust Fast With the CATS Method” on The Pet Parent Hotline with host Amy Castro. Amy explains how to create a calm environment that helps new cats adjust faster and why patience and safety setup matter more than cuddles in the first few days.
