Ok the waterworks have started. I feel like the worst damn cat slave lol. I know I'm not, it's not like I sent him to a gulag - it's a dang palace!

I'm also the usual anxious about travelling, and when I'm anxious I tend to cuddle the cat. So this feels quite hard.

I think I'll feel better when I'm away and gone, where I'm not around all his cat things 😂😭💀

If it gets too bad you can always cut things short and take him back home 😭

Don't worry, I will definitely cut my trip short if I'm having a bad time, or if Mickey is unwell lol

I just love him so so much

I totally get it hey. Especially when you’re at home and they aren’t there.

He’s safe and happy, and you’ll probs feel a lot better once you’ve left the house ❤️

Empty houses are hard. You'll feel better once your holiday is in progress.

Mickey is very safe. Just keep telling yourself that.
