The big deal is cats need company and stimulation. How would you

to be trapped in a house all weekend with nobody to play with?!
Would
you leave a child alone all weekend so long as it was healthy and
enough food and water? I don't think so.
What about if the cat has kitty companions and someone looking
in on them twice a day?
I would say that's fine (again, only my opinion!) . Having companions,
feline, canine or otherwise, and some human intervention to check up
on them is fine - leaving a solitary cat alone in a house for 24-48
hours isn't fine. What stimulation do they have? Nothing to chase,
nothing to snuggle up with, nothing to distract them. What a boring
existance that would be :-(
