    To be fair, taking care of a pet temporarily is an entirely different matter to having a pet permanently. I wouldn’t trust myself to care for a pet day by day for years, but taking on that responsibility for a few days while also getting the benefit of having an already trained pet for that time?

      Yep, indeed. My dad travels a lot so he wouldn’t really consider having a cat. But what started as “I guess I can take him for a few day” as quickly turned into “When is he coming back??”.
