Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2005Vacation: Do we leave them home or bring them away?
Hello all and thanks for helping out. We are leaving for a two week vacation soon and need to tend to the two cats, one is a year old the other is three months old. Option 1: Leave them home and have daily visits by three or four friends. That is three or four visits per day with one friend in charge of morning litter box and feeding, another for the evening routine, and the remaining two for companionship. Option 2: Bring them to a relatives house. There are no animal conflicts in this house, there is always someone home, there are young children in the house; ages are two, four, and eight. > Hello all and thanks for helping out. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > conflicts in this house, there is always someone home, there are young > children in the house; ages are two, four, and eight. Well, my personal opinion is that the cats will be more comfortable and less confused in their own home. Especially if the cats know these people somewhat they will be happier than being uprooted. I have done both and I think my cat was better at home with one of my friends who came and stayed for pretty much an entire three week period. Just my two cents. > Hello all and thanks for helping out. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > conflicts in this house, there is always someone home, there are young > children in the house; ages are two, four, and eight. Option 1 without question. Your kitties don't need the challenge of 3 kids in a foreign environment.

By all means, choose option 1--they would feel a lot more secure in their own home. (I would be concerned that the cats would run away from a relative's house, and try to make their way back home).--r3 |
