Hi,

I have a bit of a crisis. I just brought my two new cats home on Sunday, and now I have to go out of town from Thursday night-Sunday night. Should I bring them with me and traumatize them further, or leave them here with lots of food and water? The older one (an adult cat) is having a bit of trouble adjusting, and if at all possible I'd like to avoid stressing him further

Do you have any friends that could come and spend those few days with your kitties? That's what I would do. Poor dear things will already be a bit skittish getting used to the new place.

I would hire a pet sitter, one your vet's office recommends

So I've been doing some more thinking on it, and have decided to leave them but get a girl from work to check in on them and feed and play with them for a few hours every day. My town only has 3000 people, so there's not pet sitting service or anything like that. But I'm sure they'll be in good hands!
