When Your Cat is Hospitalized

If your cat needs to be hospitalized, visit her as often as the clinic allows. Make sure the cat has a refuge available when she comes home. Cats recognize one another by scent. When your cat returns home, other cats may treat her as an outsider because she smells like the hospital. You may need to slowly reintroduce her to avoid conflict (see Introducing a New Cat).
