Feline dilemma
Morning all, I've been planning a big bike trip that could last anywhere between 4months and a year, and am incredibly excited about it, however have come slightly unstuck because I had hoped my parents would take in my 5 year old cat...alas they won't take him.
I'm now having a bit of a crisis because I don't want to cause my (really quite clingy/loving) cat more disruption than absolutely necessary, so wanted to know what other people have done when they've gone away on a big trip? Some friends of mine in Scotland have offered to take him, they would do a fantastic job and would love him to bits but just worried that he doesn't "know" them so might get very upset, and wouldn't it be better to get a cat lover to rent my flat while I'm away with him in it so that he gets to keep his own turf?
Apologies if this all sounds a bit neurotic, but I feel terrible about my cat esp as my mother doesn't want me to go away at all so is using the cat as a major guilt trip - its awful! Any sound advice very much welcome please as this is a far bigger worry to me currently than crossing the DRC...!
