So as I have said before I am going to be fostering a cat with kidney failure and I just bought a house. I decided to move him directly into the house after I am living there, but now I'm trying to figure out when would be a good time. Do I bring him in at the same time as my cats, or do I wait until my cats have setteled in the new house?

Can you seperate him from the rest of the cats in a spare room, but still bring them all at the same time? I think that might work out best, as your cats would get comfortable in the whole house while the renal failure cat can feel safer and more comfortable in a smaller area (especially since it will need to get used to the house AND you). Then I would say just follow normal introduction procedures once the other cats get comfortable in the new house.

Yes he will be coming in and spending time in the bathroom until they all get used to each other. Mo is very used to me as I sub-q him 4 - 5 day a week. I look forward to having a more loving relationship with him as well. Right now he just knows me as the mean sub-q lady.
