It is recommended that when a kitten goes home, that he or she is placed in a room of their own in order to be given time to adjust to their new environment and parents for the first three or four days.

If not, and the kitten is left to try and defend theirselves against an older cat, this could lead to a frightening experience for the kitten and take the kitten longer to adapt to their new environment. Kittens must feel secure and be allowed this security when adapting to their new home. Generally, it will take a kitten approximately a week or so to be totally comfortable in their new home.
