Long ago, when I worked long hours and occasionally traveled on weekends (rarely), I would leave Amber at home with a REALLY large bowl of food and the bathroom tap dripping (she WOULD NOT drink from a bowl). She never seemed to notice I was gone, didn’t over-eat, and got annoyed when I woke her up to tell her I was home.
Maybe I worked too much.
I couldn’t leave her in a kennel, as she HATED most people and wasn’t fond of other cats. Never even HEARD of pet sitters back then. And bring her with? Oh, she would sing the heart-breaking (loud) song of her people for the entire weekend.
The world revolved around Amber, and she did not let anyone forget this.
I lost her back in 2004, age 19, and I still miss her.
