We leave Sammy home alone, if we're only gone over a weekend, but we still have a neighbor check on him every day. This year we're going away for two weeks, and a friend is going to house/cat sit for us. I wouldn't even consider boarding him, he deserves to stay in his own home. He's the...

Oh boy, I hate to tell you all what we feed Sammy. First off he always had dry food out, but that is often supplimented with chunk light tuna (packed in spring water only), Sam won't touch it if it's packed in oil, served with a side of Redi-Whip Whipped Cream. He loves it, and he's a spoiled...
