Common mistakes to avoid

Avoid choosing on looks alone, overestimating how much exercise the household can realistically provide, and rushing a diet change. In Mau, also plan around the peak summer and winter swings rather than assuming a year-round routine. Watch for seasonal coat shedding as temperatures change and brush accordingly.

The first week

Expect a quiet few days. Most pets eat less and sleep more while they adjust. Keep food the same as before the move, introduce the household gradually rather than all at once, and hold off on visitors. Vaccination and deworming dates come with the pet, and we stay reachable if anything looks off.

Feeding and daily routine

Feed at fixed times rather than leaving food out, and keep whatever diet the pet arrived on for the first fortnight before changing anything. In Mau's continental plains conditions, water matters as much as food — check the bowl more than once a day. Provide shade and constant water in summer; a warm bed and blanket in winter.
