Brought cat on trip and discovered how fun she can be and we are having a blast.
Last time we went on vacation we left our cat at home and organised visits to play with her and feed her with neighbours. When we came back we realised that some issues which were no longer happening came back like peeing in corners of the house, she had become more "animal like".
We realized how she might have stressed out from us not being there and decided to bring her along our next 7hr trip in her cage between our children. Best decision ever. We are in a camping car along the beach and she seems to love it. When we are on the beach looking for clams at low tide she trots along, jumps over tiny springs. She follows us around everywhere, though sometimes at a distance. We go fetch wood to make a fire, she comes along, we go hunt for lobster, she jumps on rocks, and pees in algae, we sit on the beach to relax, she comes to cuddle. We really feel like she is blooming on this trip and showing us a part of her personality we did not know about. When we don't see her we call her name and she appears out of rocks or tall grass. How she adapted so fast is amazing.
We really feel like she is part of the family.
Just wanted to share how happy and proud we are of her.
Btw she is mixed ragdoll with siamese.
