How long to leave cat
avalanche wrote: My lady doesn't want my cat, Bert, to visit - 'he'll destroy my...' So I leave him. For how many days/nights is that fair/ok? Studio apt. Plenty food//water. Have you considered simply changing girlfriends? If you're a cat person, she doesn't sound like a very good bet for a long-term relationship! (And since you can be less fussy about a short-term one, why would you bother with her at all?) -Brad |

Plenty food//water. -Brad It really depends on the cat. Some might be just fine, eat sleep and poop for I'd say no more than four nights. Others would likely spill the water, eat far more food than you would imagine and overfill and then distribute the contents of the liter box. That is in the first 8 hours. From there on out carpet, drapes upholstery etc are fair game. Really depends on how active and how secure the cat is. Jo |

Hi Evelyn, I'd say that the cat trees in our house have some really shredded parts, but we have to blame ourselves for the recliner mechanism that wore out and the cushions that sag on the couch. The cats probably consider the shredded cat trees improved rather than damaged. Annie |
