and it's horrid
Took the boys to the cattery this afternoon and the house feels awful without them. The place feels so empty and there are all those little spaces where there should be beds and scratch posts (taken with them). Even though I knew they were at the cattery I still looked up at the kitchen window when I got home expecting to see Jaffa sitting there. It's always hard leaving them but it was really hard leaving little Mosi. I know Jaffa doesn't particularly like it but I know he copes ok. It's Mosi's first time and he's never been in a small pen before as he came from a breeder and was raised in a family environment so just came from there to me. The nearest he gets to confinement is when he's put into the living room for time out! The look on his little face as I walked away was heartbreaking
They're in separate pens to begin with as I don't know how they'll cope together in a small space but Jaffa is in a double and Mosi a single, and they are going to put Mosi in with Jaffa for some of the time each day. I miss them already
Journey was a nightmare. Loading up the car with 2 cat trees, 2 large carrier bags of beds, toys etc. and 2 carriers was bad enough (esp when you only have 1 free hand as I do being on crutches) but Mosi screamed his head off all the way - I never realised a cat could meow so loudly! - and Jaffa did a poo and stank out the car
It takes about 40 mins to get to the cattery and it felt like twice that!
