Hello all,
I have a wonderful orange cat named Borris. I am his third owner, first adopted by a woman I don't know, then adopted by my sisters friend who couldn't keep him (aparment living arangements). So now he's living in my house, and has really attached to me.
When my parents get home, yes I still live with my folks (its LI, not exactly uncommon), she tells me he's acting really depressed that I'm not around. He likes her well enough, and can normally cuddle with him till he's ok. But this behavior has me worried. Worried, because it seems like he's very needy. And if I should ever go away on vacation for a week or two, what would happen to him?
I would think I'd just adopt another cat, but we can't really afford one at the moment. Really, we can barely afford to keep him and my dog fed, and checked up on with vet visits.
I'm not sure if there's a way to make him more independent. So I wanted to ask if there was such a way.
