Before I started using my super’s
on, I had called someone I knew who does informal rescue but also boards dogs
& house sits dogs…She could not help me (too booked), but I found
there is sort of a ‘network’ of pet sitters, dog walkers, etc. who
are all comfortable using each other for their own pets when needed. This
person hooked me up with someone who I ultimately did not use but whose name I
gave to a friend with cats. That friend used this pet sitter for years
& was thrilled. Suggestion, if you can talk to your original sitter,
the one who moved to Houston, she might have some names for you that you’d never find
anywhere else….

Problem is that I don't have family here and few friends that I
have are not cat lovers.
Had a bad experience with cat sitter. She was suppose to come by
twice a day and I came home early and caught her here at around 2:00 that
afternoon. It was suppose to be in the morning and in the afternoon. I was mad.
I had a CRF kitty at the time. I wondered how long she had been coming by like
that, only once a day and my getting charged twice. I had another sitter
and she was great. She wrote down every thing from the time she came till the
time she left. She moved to Houston though. I only had two kitties then.
Now I have 5, so I have not been any where over night for 7 years. There
is just not any one to trust conpletely. Mitsy has to have thyroid pills twice
a day and Samson has to have steriod pills every day because of the Stomatitis.

I live in an apt house
& made arrangements with my super’s son to come in twice a day to
feed, water, & clean out the boxes. He’s been doing this for me
since he was 13 & the advantage is that he doesn’t have to travel, I
know his parents make sure he comes up, and if anything is wrong in the apt.,
his father would be right there. He & his parents have my cell phone
number & I call every few days. He also has the name/phone of a
friend who came to check in every few days & would handle any medical
emergencies.

Yes,
they more than likely saw what they might have to go through with the
possibility of sickness and decided they didn't want to do that. I explained to
them that it wasn't active and may never be and then it may. I told them you never
know what anyone is going to die of anyhow.
I
guess things happen for a reason. I know Tom gets top quality food here and I
noticed they had Iams. I for sure wouldn't want Tom in a shelter either.
What
do you do when you go out of town for a couple days? Do you have a sitter come
in? I thought I had a lot (5) of them. You really have a lot of them.

Umm, yes -- I've heard lame excuses like this
before. Feline Leukemia is not transmittable to humans. That's the
most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. They probably just didn't want to
deal with the possibility of sickness.
Tom is better off with you. I mix mine and the
negatives are still negative -- all 3 of them. I don’t vaccinate
yearly. If they're immune, they're immune (imho).
Some may argue this point -- I believe in good food
and lots of love. The rest is details. They have a better life with
me than they'd have on the street or in a shelter. And they're
pampered. They know I love them.

Thanks for the information. Guess I will be on for awhile
longer. They brought Tom back in three & a half hours. His wife looked it
up on the internet and he said that his sister is taking chemo treatments and
is not suppose to be around a leukemia cat, so he didn't want to take the risk.
Have you ever heard of this? I wonder what site she saw
this on? You could tell that Tom sure was glad to be back. I am really
disappointed though. It was really a nice home and big yard with lots of trees.
