Hi!
Hope everyone is well!
My boyfriend wants to get an au pair, I don’t. My issues are that we have three cats, previously feral. They are afraid of others. When friends come over they run upstairs and hide in their room. The room that the au pair would live in is right next to the room with their litter boxes and the room in the other side is their bedroom, which is their safety room when scared. I feel having an au pair would damage their health! My boyfriend says, that the cats just have to get used to it. My stress will be that there normal routine of hanging around downstairs and playing and eating and using the litter box upstairs will turn upside down which will lead to health issues and getting them into a carrier, to go to the vet, would be impossible. I love my cats, I dont want their lives disrupted. Is there a way to get them use to people?
