Does anyone else ...

I live alone with my Danny and I find that whenever I leave the apartment, I always tell him where I am going and when I expect to be back. I don't know what I expect him to do with this information, but I feel guilty if I don't.
Does anyone else do this?
Catfriend

I don't live alone and I still do it to the kitties and pup!

ALWAYS. And I tell little Saba she is "Queen of the house, so watch over everything ok?"

Always

I let John know all the time - and when John is gone, I tell Harley Cuz I know he cares

Yeah, I do that because they give me the most guilt-inducing looks ever when I leave the apartment.

Almost always! I never missed with the old boy, but with these girls, they're not always around me. They have each other for company and go off to play. I still always yell "Bye, kids!", though.

Do you mean the cat or the husband ?

My cats know I am always at lab. My husband has my cell phone number on speeddial

I don't tell them where I'm going, but I do say "Bye guys, I'll be back later..." or "I'll be right back." When I have to kennel the dogs I tell them "I'm sorry, it will just be for a little while"...like they understand. I guess it makes me feel better...

hahahahaha funny.

I do it to Pudge all the time. Every time I come home, she greets me as if I've been gone for a long time.

Hahaha! I do that all the time! "Bye baby, I love you so much sweetheart!! I'm so sorry I've gotta go to work, be good sugar!!!!" Ah, us crazy cat people. Lol. I love that you guys are as neurotic as me! It's great!

I say goodbye to Chasey, but she doesn't usually reply.

I never bother to tell Twitch or Ophelia...it's like they just don't hear me!

I always go find Lily before I leave to tell her, though.

I give them all kisses and tell them I love them and that I'll be back later. then I tell them that I have to go make money so I can buy them cat food, litter and spoils!
I do that more so I know that they are all in the house and not on the porch like the one time I accidently left Luna out there thinking she had come inside.
Poor thing was out there for hours until Brad came home. I felt horrible and spoiled her for days!

I don't tell them where I'm going, but I always say bye babies! be good! Mommy loves you! this of course applies to the dogs too especially the be good part

I won't leave the house without letting Abby know I am leaving and saying goodbye.

I say "Buh-Bye Phenny!! Meowmie has to go earn your dinner!!" when I am going to work, and when I am just going out I say" Bye Phenny girl!! I won't be long!!"

Ditto. I find both of mine and say goodbye before I leave--I am almost embarrassed to say this, but I even do it when I'm just running out to the store and am going to be back in 10 minutes. Part of it is just that I want to see where everybody is before I leave and make sure they are okay, and part of it is...I just feel like I should say goodbye. I mean, if they were kids, I wouldn't walk out of the apartment without saying something. (I wouldn't say that last thing about kids in mixed company, so to speak, but I know I can say that sort of thing here without people thinking I'm a nutcake... )

she cares when I leave, and follows me right to the door, then puts on her big big big eyes that I love so much, and I tell her "mommy has to go to work, I'll be back later, I love you, be a good girl" either way my house is always a mess by the time I come home...

I always say, "Be good" (they almost always are) and "I love you, babies."
