Hi everyone, back in march or april i posted about boarding stoli and luxor in a cats only facility......
well, we got to thinking that maybe we could work it out so they can stay home, short of not going.
if they stayed home, they'd be confined to two ABSOLUTELY cat proofed rooms with food, litter boxes, cat tree, water etc...... and my nextdoor neighbor would come over twice a day to feed them and clean their boxes. but the stipulation would be that she had to put them back in the rooms (together) before she left.
my concern is that they would try to get out and the 'stranger' wouldn't be able to get them to come back in. I also want to do what is the least stressful for my cats - especially stoli. He is so anxious all the time when something isn't routine.
I also don't want them to get sick from other cats.
Of course I could not go to Las Vegas, but that really isn't THAT much of an option.
We will be gone from Early Monday morning to Late Friday night.
what do you think?
1. board them, they'll have 24 hour supervision
2. keep them home in cat proofed rooms with someone coming over to feed and clean them
3. keep them home and have free reign of the house, they won't get outside, you are being paranoid.
4. are you kidding? you can't take a vacation with kitties, STAY HOME
