What do you do with your kitties when you go on holidays?


Hello feline folk,

I hope you don't mind, I've made a short, 4 question survey about what you do with your cats when on holiday. I've got two little kittens myself, growing up fast, and I just wondered how other people handle the holidays.

It should only take a minute or two to fill in and I welcome all your responses

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/3LZZ3T5

Thanks ever so much!

R

Done.

For the record - mine all stay at home and are free to come and go - fed and watered by the lady next door.

Re: What do you do with your kitties when you go on holidays?


Done, but based on the 1st 2 cats I had. I wouldnt have gone away last year with Oliver being so young (10-12 weeks). As for Benny, I wouldnt have worried cos as the saying goes "he would get a piece at anyones door! Although, am sure my neighbour would have fed him! I do go away overnight, but make sure I put enough food out for them.

done

I used to put Denis in catteries but he gets so distressed I now have the neighbour come in and feed him, he is a lot happier with this, he gets the run, safety and security of his own home with no changes made other than her coming in and he knows her anyway

We're lucky inasmuch that we make sure our holidays don't clash with OH's daughter, then there's always someone to be at home.

Goh! Just occurred to me I could fill out the survey with what I did being in hospital ... same principle; Leia went to stay with a friend that she's known since kittenhood.

Done

We also have dogs which we have always had - we dont go away - animals come first! If we had to go away then the cats would go to the vets cattery but I really cant see it happening..........
