He is a beautiful boy! Not sure what your plans on socializing him are once you get him home, but I would suggest keeping him in one small room to start with (preferably a room where you intend to keep his food, water, and litterbox permanently) until he starts to adjust. Remember, he is a tiny little kitten and your home will seem like a huge, foreign kingdom to him. He won't know where the litterbox is and will potentially get lost easily in a new environment - don't want accidents to occur.
So one step at a time - get him comfortable with you - and one small room, then slowly expand his territory every few days (or as he seems ready) until he has free rein of the home. Realize that moving him to a new environment may cause a bit of a setback given his history and personality, but just be patient and gentle with him and he will undoubtedly bond with you. It really helps that you have been visiting with him already a few times at the breeder's home.
That's the plan.
He will start his journey in the smallest bedroom.
So i can be there at night also.
Food, litter box, water, toys, etc will be provided.
After he has bounded with me and he gets confident i want to move him to the bathroom.
I know it might be a bit of a shock to move again, but it's the best way in this household for the socializing.
It is again a small room that will have everything provided.
From here he can hear and smell the other cats. (bathroom is located next to the kitchen)
I can't sleep there at night, but more people will pass by.
Once confident again, he can go into the kitchen and by and by get introduced with other cats, 1 at a time.
After that living room. Later cat proof garden and my bedroom.
I will be putting extra litterboxes all over the house.
The small room where he starts upstairs he can't come after. only in 1-2 years when my brother moves out.
