Expert Answer

It is better to bathe a cat a week after it moves into a new home, because a cat generally needs about a week to adapt to a new place, and it is best to bathe it only after it has settled in, avoiding bathing while it is nervous. Some cats show clear discomfort after moving, with changes in energy, appetite, and toilet habits; in that case the owner should comfort it promptly, give it some familiar items to increase its sense of security and help it adapt faster, and may also add a proper amount of pet probiotics to regulate its gut and restore normal elimination.
