I'm going to be going away for about two years and it is likely I will not be able to bring my cat with me during this time.
I wouldn't normally consider this an issue, but my cat seems to be attached to me. It sleeps under my covers with me at night, follows me around the house, and when I'm away it usually sleeps until I come home.
I mean, I know that we put a lot of emotions into cats that might not be there; I will miss my cat terribly but will she really miss me? There are people here to take care and give attention to my cat in my absence, but I guess I'm still nervous.
So basically, what I'm asking here is.. do you think it is OK to leave my cat like this? My cat will be fine, right? She will cope and just attach herself to someone else, right? I feel kind of silly for caring so much about my cats feelings..
