Hi
I am leaving for 6 days shortly. My one cat will be here alone. He is pretty self reliant type, I think he will be ok. My neighbor, who is quite good with pets is checking on him. I am putting out two cat litter pans and covering the floor with paper in case of problems. But neighbor will take care of litter, I just want to make it as easy as possible. I usually feed my cat wet food here and there but with possible bacteria I figured he could handle just dry for the week while I am gone.
Any other suggestions? I have no idea if he will miss me much. I considered a cattery but I think he would happier at home even if he is cooped up (he is normally indoor/outdoor) My neighbor offered to let him out here and there and come back to get him, is that wise? Would he likely get confused? Should I have him keep him in?
