Ain't it the truth!
===================================
Our poor cats are alone while we're away for my honey's cataract surgery.
Dog went to the kennel and you know how dogs are. The second he sees his bed, his toys, his dish all being gathered up, he knows its kennel time and just goes ballistic. That's the signal for one cat to go hide in my studio and the other under the bed.
So, we get all packed up and have the master bedroom set up for one cat (the Great Catsby aka Bratsby because he cannot be left alone in the house or with his sister. This cat is like a puppy. He's the Maine coon, eats plastic and beats up on his sister) and Brodie (named for Steve Brodie who jumped off the Brooklyn bridge and lived because we found her huddled on a huge bridge, a tiny abused kitten, starving and badly banged up from having been thrown out of a moving car with the supposed goal of drowning. They missed and she hit the concrete bridge. She's done well but still spooks at almost everything.)
So, the hunt is on for the cats. We finally find him in my studio and her under the bed. They both get new guilt toys and enough food and water for weeks - just in case. We plan to to be gone two nights but you never know.
We'll go home tomorrow (cataract surgery went well) and, bless their littly furry hearts, they will forgive us for deserting them.
The dog will be exhausted and sleep for several days.
