Going on vacation is a double edged sword. On one hand, it’s exciting and an opportunity to experience a new place, new people, eat delicious foods, and gain insight into another culture, to take a break from the grind and 9-5 pace. On the other hand, it’s planning, booking hotels, spending hours flying somewhere and waiting in lines at the airport, and can feel overwhelming to feel pressure to do a lot while you’re there. It’s not always easy to leave your day to day life, even if it’s for a vacation. The best vacation to me is just to be resting at home, have my comfort things, my anime shows, and my cat.
The couple in the story below leave for a long vacation, and they have anxiety about leaving their cat. They’ve left for a trip before, but this time they’re extra nervous because they can see their cat waiting by the door and crying. Would you leave your cat for a long trip even if someone was coming to watch it? A lot of the comments are claiming it’s cruel to do, and that they wouldn’t. Depending on the cat, it could be cruel, or the cat could be fine.
