ive never used a cat sitter before so don’t know what is normal, but I’m not sure if I’m being unreasonable with this (we’re currently away on holiday).
a) the cats have a set amount of biscuits each day - this is because they are both on weight control diets due to being, erm, generously sized! The cat sitter knows this but keeps giving them extra as ‘they finish all that they have so they can graze’
b)apparently they are refusing their wet food. This is also in calorie controlled pouches from the vet that cost a load of money. I’m not surprised they are refusing the food as frankly they have been eating too many biscuits! Cat sitter has had a rummage and found some old felix we keep in in case of emergency, or having to give drugs, and has been feeding this on and off instead.
c) we asked for the cats to be kept in as much as possible, but she has left them out every day and one hasn’t come home for over 24 hours now. I hope it comes home this morning, but they are not usually outside of the home that much.
i would have thought the cat sitter would have followed our instructions more closely? Or do they use their initiative like this? We’ve only ever used a cattery before which didn’t give any daily feedback on the cats habits - we thought a cat sitter would be better for them but now I’m not so sure!
