Hi Suzy and Knucklehead,
Good luck with the move, Suzy. Knucklehead has just about covered it, but
you also asked how long before you could risk taking your puss outside. She
is really going to miss the big outdoors and will probably fret to go out.
She may even try to escape, so you'll have to be careful with doors and
windows.
In the UK, vets and cat rescue both advise keeping a cat in for 5-6 months.
That's a long time, I know, but you should consider it. As Knucklehead
says, a harness and lead is a good idea, especially until you see how she
reacts.
