Hello, to everyone! I am looking for advice and I was wondering if any of you could please help me out.
My boyfriend has an 8-month-old, unneutered male kitten and he has to leave to go to his hometown for about a month. The problem is "where to leave the kitten", as the trip lasts 4 hours by train. Apart from that, we both assume that the kitten would be confused in a new environment, and it could also be dangerous since his parents have two dogs in the house.
Unfortunately, there isn't a "pets' hostel" around here, and I can't take him at my place because I also have a dog. I am willing to visit my boyfriend's home every day to feed and take care of the kitten, but he thinks that it will feel too lonely during the rest of the day and night. He also thinks that as we won't be around to turn on the radiators and aircondition regularly, it might catch a cold.
Is this true? Do cats get lonely if they are not around people 24/7? And would the lack of constant heat cause the cat health problems? If you have any advice on the matter, please feel free to let me know
