Should I Take My Cat?
I’m getting married in a little over a week and due to unexpected circumstances we are having to leave 6 days earlier than planned. This means we’ll be gone a total of around 12-13 days. We had already arranged for a sitter to check in on our kitty for 30 minutes a day for the original 6 days. I am sure we could book the sitter for additional days or have a friend pick up the slack.
He’s very warm with the sitter, but he’s generally pretty skittish and shy around new people which makes me think a 16 hour road trip each way to a new environment with the potential to get pretty loud may not be the best for him. 176
But at the same time he loves us so much. I hate to leave him for more than a couple days. I feel stressed and guilty. But I don’t want to put him through an even more stressful situation to make myself feel slightly better.
Will he be better off staying home for 12-13 days with daily visits than a long road trip to a new place but with his people? 210
