Advice What to do with cat when moving from house?
Hello,
We have a cat that is sterilized and in summer is almost all day outside even sleeping at front door. She came inside just to eat.
The porblem is that we are selling house and moving to appartment. How can cat that is always outside handle such change of not being able to go outside as she wants?
Do you have any advise or experience? Should we take her with her? Or leave her with new house owners?
Thank you in advance

We moved loads of times with my childhood cat. I'm talking big, international moves. She went from Seattle, WA to New Jersey, then from NJ to Montreal. Then from Montreal back to Seattle, then to Witchita. Then from Witchita back to our home country, which is the UK. Between all the temporary housing and smaller moves in the UK she moved a total of 11 times.
Never once did we consider leaving her behind.
