Howdy,
I have two cats, a four year old and her kit at 3 years old.
They are both indoor cats, but the older one did spend the first year of her life outside.
The young one is scared of most things, when we have to take her to the vet she shakes like a jelly, whilst the older one is fine.
We are going off on holiday for 14 days next month; we have left them alone for about 10 before, with people coming in and feeding them. Problem is they get bored. They don't do any damage, but they don't like it.
So I am considering sending them off to a cattery, but I am not sure which is the lesser of two evils. I am sure the older one would be fine, but it would show her the outside world again. The young one would probably adjust within a week, but then she too has experienced the outside, only to be deigned it on her return.
Any advise please?
Thanks.
