Hello all, I'm moving house in the first week of June and cannot wait. We're finally moving to the countryside, which means my two cats are going to be able to roam freely in the fields!
Here's my dilemma: in the first week of August I'm supposed to be going away on holiday. I wanted to keep the cats on house arrest from early June to early August because I've read all the guidelines about getting your cat used to their new home before letting them outside.
So for this first week of August holiday, I have two options:
- Woman coming around to feed and pet once a day
- Put them in a "cat hotel" cattery
With the second option, I'm just worried that sending them away for a week will undo the two months of acclimatising them to the new house. On the other hand with just having the woman pop in from time to time, I'd be worried.
What would you do?
