My husband and I are retiring at the end of this month. We have three cats and two dogs which haven't been left alone for more then a week at time. Since we plan on doing more traveling, it's going to be VERY painful for me to leave them alone for 2 weeks. We will have a neighbor peek in on them everyday, but since they aren't use to strangers that won't do much good to comfort them. The last time we returned from being away for a week, the cats did much better and it only took them about 1/2 hr. to come out from under the bed and stare at us, making sure it was really us. I won't board them anywhere, I'm afraid that would really freak them out. The dogs I'm not worried about, they love everybody and as long as someone feeds them and pats their heads, they will be happy. I think I will be worse for wear when it comes to leaving my cats.
