    As long as someone is going to check on them daily I think it's a great idea, far less stress for all concerned.

    Sounds good, especially since you are making the changes early, and the furkids can get used to everything and you can see early on what works and what needs tweaking.

    They have each other for company too, so that is great.

    BTW - I am sorry and almost afraid to ask - any news on Bridget?

    sounds like a much better arrangement for all. No waiting to gather all when you get home.

    Catty, I have put food out for Bridget since I got back and none of it has been touched. All the signs Samantha did last time we were home to alert me (and I didn't understand), she did not do this time. No one has caught sight of her since before I got back the last time. I set the trap the first week I was back and the food in it was always untouched and the trap unsprung. I think I really don't want to know what happened to her..

    Since I was a little concerned by your previous arrangement, I'm really pleased by the change. I've heard that cats are more likely to be upset by a change in venue than by a change in personnel, with dogs being the opposite, and that's what I've seen with mine. I bet you come back to a happy and contented household after your next trip.

    I'm sorry about Bridget. I too have been afraid to ask about her.

    I'm all for the change Laura. You've done all the neccessary adjustments and you have very trustworthy people to come and check up on them. Personally, I think this is the best thing for them all around.
    If you find it in your heart and have a good gut feeling about this, then go for it.

    It sounds a great arrangement. I think the cats will be much happier staying in their own place, than being moved to a different environment.
