We’re adopting a 5 year old Ragdoll into the Jameo household in a few weeks. Not had a cat before, any hot tips to help it settle in?

They'll want a spot to go and hide where they can feel comfortable. You can't necessarily choose where that is but maybe you can clear a spot under the bed or something

Get a cardboard box!

Jokes aside - I second what @PhilDAS said, offer a cozy spot and / or observe which spot the cat prefers, and make that cozy. Blankets are good, dark blue ones especially.

Be prepared for the cat taking a while to get adjusted to the new place (and keep it indoors at least two weeks).
