We moved to a new apartment yesterday. My cats drove my husband and me nuts last night, which was the first night at the new place. They came up to the bed and meowed so loud to wake us up at 3am. When we woke up, they wanted no food but just rubbing against my legs constantly. I know they might not like the new scent at the new place. But I need to do something quick so my husband and I can have a good night sleep for work!!!!

Please help!!! Thank you.

There's no place like home
Cats are creatures of habit and they always get a little perturbed when you move them. Not only do you have new smells, sites and sounds, but your routine is off because you probably aren't entirely settled in your new place. I moved 2 months ago and still have boxes laying around everywhere!

Give them a solid routine for a few days, a bit of extra loving and a hard play before bedtime. They should adjust pretty quickly and you will get your sleep back.

My husband and I have been using At Ease, we bought it at Petsmart. Spray it around your new living space and it makes them feel just a little less stressed. It should take the edge off some of the anxiety that they are feeling.
