My 18 year old girls (twins) and I are going to leave town for a few days. This will be the first time Javie has been alone without us in his whole 11 month life. My 22 year old son will be here - but it's just not the same. He doesn't cuddle with him like we do or give him much attention. Javie has his routines. When he wants to cuddle, he will meow really loud and give one of us intense eye contact - like he is saying, I want to cuddle right now! Then he will jump up on the bed or couch and rub his little face against ours, press cheek to cheek, nose to nose, purring like crazy, kneading, until he falls asleep. We know exactly what his different looks mean, and what he wants most of the time. (I sound like a servant.)
He is going to be so sad and confused with us gone. I'm going to worry about him our whole vacation. And we're only going for two nights. How have other people dealt with going on vacation and leaving their beloved kitties? Especially people who only have one animal without anyone to keep them company. I have a week long vacation coming up in the next year.
Thanks, Mimi
