Gloria, BFA, adopted on Jan. 9, 2016 when she was 30 years old
. Her mom went to a nursing home.
Also have 2 cats (Rangerand Luna) and a 24 year old aquatic turtle, named Elvis.
What do you all do for your babies when you have to leave them? Normally I have a sitter that comes in twice a day to feed the cats, turn the lights on and off etc. Gloria has a radio that is on during the day. However, the sitter wasn't available on Christmas day. We decided to just travel to our son's hours (4 hours away) early Christmas morning and come home Monday in the early afternoon. Normally the sitter doesn't cover the cage as it gets dark in the house. I put Gloria's avian light on a timer and I'll keep the radio on. Hopefully she'll still sleep okay. She's used to noise as she's right in our family room but she's typically covered.
Any suggestions? I'd take her with us but my son has two really big obnoxious dogs and she's be stuck in a travel cage in the guest room because of them so I figured she's better off at home in her large cage.
I'm feeling such "parrontal" guilt.
