Advice Needed on Adult Retired Breeder Please

As I am sure many of you already know, I am fortunate enough to have DragonladyPass's "Masquerade (Raider)" adopt me. She has just been spayed and is recovering nicely. She is scheduled to come to her forever home next Tuesday, the 14th. I will be meeting her and her escort at the airport that evening. You can see a pic of her in my sig.

While I have had kitty babies my entire life, this is my first experience in having a retired breeder baby come to live with me.

Masquerade (Raider) is a gorgeous Persian. I would more than welcome and be very appreciative of any advice that any of you might have that would help me help her adjust as quickly as possible to her new environment.

Are adult retired breeders unique in some ways to other adults that come to live with you? Are adult retired Persian breeders unique? Are there any special things that I should do?

Thanking you in advance for your kind help!

IMO it would be like any other adult cat you bring in. Makes no difference. A retired breeding male might be a bit different if he was a sprayer, but spayed females are not any different.

You just would do the normal introductions. Keep new cat in a room by herself for a few days and then let her out and lock up the resident cats in the room where the new female was.

Then I would put her in a carrier and sit in the middle of the room and let everyone sniff each other. Expect some hissing/growling for awhile and clip ALL cats nails. Then supervise everyone and in a few days they should be fine.

That is excellent advice, THANK YOU!

You got great advice from Golden kitty

And always be sure to brush brush brush that lovely Persian Coat Raider appears to have a coat like my Lylas which is an easier to keep coat..but without touching i wouldnt know

I know my girls from Teresa love to be brushed. Congrats on your girl!
