Cat Behavior
it sounds like your mom didn't bond with her cat. does she go on frequent trips or work long hours? somehow it didn't learn to trust humans. a friend of mine had a terribly mean cat, but she did the opposite. she is always picking it up and squeezing it and kissing it like it's a teddy bear. he now hides, bites, or scratches to avoid her and anybody else!

Cat Care
it depends how finicky your cat is whether you will have a hard time or not. definately mix the new litter in with the old first. start with 25% new and 75% old, then as you remove litter as waste keep adding the new.

Cat Behavior
when i adopted a 2 year old cat, she had been abused and neglected in her previous home. they told me at the shelter that it would take quite a few months for her to feel secure and comfy with us. she hid under the bed for the first 2 months! what worked for me was to let her settle in at her own pace and not force her. try to go about your daily activities in a routine way, like watch tv in the living room at a certain time every night. my cat started coming downstairs to see what we were doing on her own. when we saw her we would just greet her in a quiet and welcoming voice and not try to grab her or pet her. the idea is to let her know that you are a "safe" person and the house is a safe place. keep your energy very calm and focus on anything but her. it is a very slow process, but the first time she comes to you and lays next to you on the couch you will feel so rewarded. we have had penelope for a little over a year now, and she still suprises us every week with a new level of intimacy she's achieved.

Cat Behavior
your cat will miss you and probly exhibit undesired behaviors like going outside of the litter box or clawing your furniture. if it was an older cat with an aloof personality he might be okay with it, but not a kitten. you really have to get to know your cat before you can make that kind of decision.
