Need advice please!

Oh boy, 5000 mile trip? Wow, I know my guys would be singing a very loud song the whole way!

If he's ok with your parents and they're willing to take him on while you explore the country then I'd leave him with them. He'll be happy tosee you home. He might give you the cold shoulder for a few days as "punishment" so remember to return with lots of goodies (FOOD!) to help him forgive you faster.

Haha, thank you. I will stock up on some treats for him.

Yes, dreading the miles! A trip out to CA and back. Probably will be much easier without kitty yelling at me!

Thanks again for helping me with decision!

I'd leave him with your parents where he'll be safe.

I left my lover boy RB Fritz for two months with my parents when I did my college internship. He was my baby!

When I got back he punished me by ignoring me...for a whole day!

On the other hand, my parents later were traveling with their cat across country and he almost escaped at a rest stop when he had enough...

I was going to say that it would be safer for your kitty to stay with your parents and I'm glad that you decided to do that.

Yes, he will be a little ticked off with you at first, but then he will be his loveable self again, if not more so, once he forgives you. Don't worry, he will not forget you.

What kind of kitty do you have and how old is he?

[KatyCaneB]

Well, I hope he doesn't stay mad at me for too long! Maybe after all the hugs and kisses he'll forgive.

He's about 7 months old. He's a Siamese. I didn't know a whole lot about the breed before I got him, but I'm learning very quickly that they are so peculiar and needy! (I don't mind though )
