DON'T say that!!!! That is my biggest panic!! I don't think I ever will!! How could I leave my babies!!

we rented a flat when our hosue was renovated just people the idea of a cattery scares me!!

us neither,we did once and kay73 came and stayed in our house to look after animals,we came home early thoughhoping to get away this year,so need to find a house sitter that fits the bill!

The reason we go o often is because my nan lives their and is getting on a bit and we need to visit her.

I doubt anyone would steal it, just being precautions. And I would not treat it any better than the rest of my cats, I love them all equally. The breed does not effect that.

I am happy to leave it alone with my cats, just aware different breeds need different things, and my cats are always fine to be left, they are perfectly happy with each other, but a siamese may be different in these circumstances.

I am lucky cos my Mum comes and moves in for the duration of our hols. When we holiday in the UK we do take the doglets with us. Pussy cats have Grandma

Maybe because there is more likelihood of a pedigree being stolen then a moggie - and by summer that kitty will probably not have learnt to be street wise so to speak. My cat is left when we are away - but we have a catflap and he goes in and out the house as he pleases - relations (if not staying) go in and feed him.

We get my boyfriend's parents to cat sit if I am forced to go on holiday, I just spend time missing my cats...don't miss the litter tray duties though

agreed, I think this is one of the things you do without if you become a slave to animals lol cant remember my last holiday lol

all you do is worry so its not worth it

A week after coming back from holiday I was given Waffles. It is now time to book our holiday next year and we have decided not to go I really love going on holiday but I would be paranoid the whole time.
I cried when I had to leave Waffles at the vets for four hours for goodness sake!

Same here, WittyKitty. When I first started talking to the Mau breeder that I eventually got my kitten off, I told her that I had a holiday planned for the coming year, which was going to be around the time that her next litter was free to leave Mum. It turned out that my holiday started about two days after I was free to pick her up, but kindly the breeder offered to hold on to her for an extra two weeks until I got back from my holiday. I definitely made the most of that holiday, knowing full well that it might be my last. Now, I don't think I could ever imagine going on holiday, I mean, I'm going to Meadowhall for the whole day soon and have arranged for my brother to pop by in the afternoon to come and feed her and keep her company for a bit, and I'm even dreading that!
