This weekend the BF and I are going to a wedding that is about 10 hours away. We are leaving Friday early in the morning and will be getting back on Monday evening. So, it's pretty much 4 whole days away from home.
This will be the longest I've left the cats since we got them a year and a half ago. I think the longest we've left them before is 2 nights, but not three full days. I haven't left them alone for a night since last summer.
My mom will be coming daily to check on them, give them their wet food, clean their box, etc. I, of course, will be calling mom daily to see how my girls are. I will be leaving the number of the Emergency vet, of course, as well as making sure that there is always a way to get hold of me.
I know it's irrational, but I'm so anxious about leaving them. First, I'm worried that they'll be bored and miss us. Second, I'm scared that something will happen to them while we're gone. I worry about them, even if we're gone for longer than usual during the day. My boyfriend is going to think I'm nuts when I tear up when we leave Friday morning, but I feel like I'm abandoning my babies. If they were more laid back, I'd take them with me in a heartbeat.
Does anyone else feel super anxious when they have to leave their cats for a period of time?
