    Thanks for your inputs, you added some very good questions.

    Lut, you can assure your girls that of course, the food I will make sure to know where is stored - the catlitter too.

    God forbid that anything serious happen while I catsit, but you do have a point there... I should know what to do in such a case.

    Also, it’s important to know whether he’s a door darter. And how he reacts to being alone for longer periods.

    I will certainly ask the questions about a vet and what she expects I should do in various cases.

    Ohh, and I just thought of one more.... what if I lose the key!

    In my first cat-sitting job, we didn’t discuss all these things, except that I should check that Malcolm didn’t scratch a little wound open he had on his neck. Luckily, he didn’t and the hair had almost grown back when his owner came home. I did have their e-mail and telephone numbers, though.

    When someone looks after Fister, whether it's a cathotel or a catsitter, I write a few pages with Fister's history - all sorts of things, and of course give my vet's address and telephone number. I also give the number to a few of my other friends/neighbors who know me and Fister.

    I think I would want to know his secret hiding place. If I do not see him...where should I look?

    A radio is a good idea, Gary. Treats I have on my list.

    Where I was catsitting before, they said I could leave the lights on, but I didn't - what if something had happened.
