Most dogs and cats are more
comfortable in their own homes than in a kennel while their parents are
away. At home, pets are more able to stick to their routines and relax
in their favorite places. They aren't subject to the stresses or
sicknesses that kennel living can bring.
Questions to ask prior to kenneling a pet:
1. How long will my pet be out of the kennel daily?
(Length of time and number of times)
2. Will my pet be individually walked or turned out
with a group?
3. How are the kennels cleaned? How often are they
cleaned?
4. Are there any "hidden charges"? (i.e. for extra
"out of kennel time", for administering medication, for Sunday
pick-ups).
Cats can be left home alone. They'll probably be fine
with the food and water that was left down for them. Hopefully the water
won't get dumped and they can survive on stale food. Cats, as
independent as they are, do better with human contact and the special
"treats" that only humans can provide.
It's often an imposition for a family member, neighbor
or friend to feed your cat or to let your dog out. Friends may not be
available to care for your pets in the same manner as they're
accustomed, meet the schedule that the pet has grown used to or clean
the messes as you'd like.
