Hey Tonya! Thanks for the reassurance. I am planning on getting another cat, but I thought I should wait until after we retest Slinky so I'm sure of his felv status (and then can get a pos or neg cat depending on the results). The vet wants to wait a few more months before retesting.
Yes, I know how it is dealing with principals! It can be horrible...which is so sad since they're supposed to be supportive and helpful!! Glad to hear HR gave you your day back, though. Good luck with the rest of the year!
Thanks!
MJ

It's always hard to leave them, but sometimes you have to. It sounds like you've done everything you can to make Slinky comfortable while you're gone. I'm sure he'll be fine. Have you thought about getting another cat so he won't be alone when you're not home?tonya
Marissa Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:Hi all. I can't believe I'm even sending this considering that Slinky is asymptomatic and seems to be fine...and as compared to the struggles you all have, this is such a tiny matter! But...I could use your positive thoughts anyway.I'm going out of town tomorrow for about 4 days (leaving tomorrow morning, returning monday night)...and I am SOOOO nervous about leaving Slinky! This will be the first time I've ever left him overnight!!One of my coworkers is going to come in every day and feed him, play with him, and clean out his litter box. I've gone through everything with her and she loves animals. I'm leaving his dry food and water in automatic feeders (also the first time for using those) and she will give him canned food when she comes. I'm sure everything will be fine, but...I'm kind of freaking out!I'm worried that he'll get into something, get sick, or that he'll just hate me for leaving him! Last weekend, my boyfriend and his sister were here. He and I went to a movie and his sister told me Slinky sat near the door and cried for about 15 minutes until she went and told him she was still there. And yesterday when I left for work, I could hear him meowing behind the door after I left! :(Really, I KNOW this isn't a big deal and I know there are so many other problems I could be dealing with. But I would still appreciate your positive thoughts and prayers...for Slinky AND for me!! I'll be at a conference where I'm speaking several times and kind of need to be "on" so I don't want to be too worried. And I just hope he'll still love me after I get back!I'm sure I sound mellow-dramatic, but since he's my first pet as an adult, and this is the first time I've left him, I'm just...worried. Thanks for all your support and for understanding!!!I hope you and all you kitties are doing well!!MJ
