Hi everyone.
New here and in a dilemma.
We recently found out our female cat is expecting. She was due to be spayed but we had suspicions and about 2 weeks ago the vet did an X-ray and confirmed she had around 2 weeks left (so any day now… no labor symptoms as of yet).
However, we are scheduled to visit family finally to introduce our new baby and let our other kids spend time with family mid July.
I’m not sure what to do … sadly, canceling the vacation isn’t an option - we have a pet sitter who lives nearby who typically comes to feed our other pets but the vacation is 2 weeks. The kittens would be between 3 and 4 weeks old when we leave. The pet sitter has no problem coming by the clean the litter trays and feed the cats but do you think this is a safe option?
