Indoor Cat Initiative

Holidays

Your cat's refuge is her best friend during the holidays. Holidays bring many changes to the cat's environment such as guests, changes in owners' schedules, new "furniture" such as holiday decorations and Christmas trees, and moving existing furniture to accommodate decorations. These types of change in her daily routine may be a source of stress for your cat. A refuge will help her feel safe and provide a place for her to retreat to when household activities are hectic. Make sure that your guests respect the privacy of your cat’s refuge.
