This is Hudson.
We went out of town recently and some friends came by each day for cat care. We wanted to make sure that no one shooed the boys off of their favorite kitchen counter, so we left a note.
(Honestly, we left way too many notes. But I can't help it. I get so anxious about leaving them!)
@sparge Nope not too many. I have at least 5 post-it notes hung around every room, 15 in the kitchen, and a list of step by step instructions and emergency numbers on the fridge. I reuse them each time I have to go away from my kitties
I'm a bit of a control freak about my furbabies, but totally ok with it. The people I'd trust with them appreciate my detailed instructions
Kitties thrive with consistency and we are good cat parents for helping to provide that :-)

@jake4480 @sparge Haha! My old cat Mica came everywhere with me, though he never took to the leash so he was happily an indoors kitty. He had lived in 15 states by the time he passed away at 20 yo. Did I get some strange looks bringing him and his stuff into hotels etc? Sure did. And cared not a whit!
But there were some trips that would've been unsafe or unpleasant for him, so trustworthy cat sitters have always been a must. And notes. Lots of detailed notes :-)
