Since she first left for BS, her cat has sat outside CameoKid’s room wailing intermittently for a week or two. They had a great summer together, and the poor kitty is still sad that she’s gone again… and this is the sixth year we’ve been through this! So I found this article in the Boston Globe today interesting… kitty doesn’t enjoy road trips, or I’d consider taking her to visit!
I posted on your other thread that our son would Skype with his cat both from boarding school and college. The cat absolutely understood that “his boy” was on that screen and would meow at him. He asked for one last Skype on the day we had to put his pet down, a year ago this month. :((
