[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It might concern me a little but if the sitter was otherwise good, I'd get over it.

I used to cat sit for my neighbors who had two cats with opposing personalities, and the shy one pretty much lived under their bed the entire time. Usually I'd go and find her and do a visual check, even though she was never going to come out and say hi. Occasionally she wouldn't be under the bed and I'd poke around a little but there's also the factor of not wanting to go hunting through someone else's home.

I could easily see going 2-3 days without seeing her if I didn't go to the trouble of going and finding her under the bed. And also I had known these cats for years and was good friends with the neighbors, so I sort of knew the drill. You said this sitter has only watched the cats a couple times before? I wouldn't worry about it.[/quote]

Yeah, this particular cat is new. The other one, she's watched for five years (and that is the one to hide under the bed when a stranger arrives).

Thanks, all. Just needed a gut check.[/quote]
