I feel ya. Currently trying to figure out how to get out of upcoming holiday travels since dragging them along won’t be an option.
I guess I also look forward to the extra affection they give me when I return, and usually try to plan for a “decompression” day (or at least half day) as soon as I return so that I can take full advantage.
That’s tough! Glad you will get to spend a day with them when you get back. I’ve been thinking how to play with them and made them feel more loved? What do you do? I mostly just let on them and give them their favorite snacks. Was thinking of new ideas
My oldest is pretty cuddly, but only on his terms, so I’m always excited to curl up on the couch or in bed and enjoy some snuggle time. If I have the energy, I might do some play time with the wand toy or some clicker training with their favorite treats. If I’m feeling more lazy, just tossing treats… They love chasing them!
I think they’ll let you know what they want. I definitely feel you on the urge to go over the top with spoiling them, but what they probably appreciate most is just having you back. I’ve come to realize that most of my efforts to spoil my cats are more about me than they are about the cats.
I’ve done this as well! But sometimes I have to travel for work or family. Not looking forward to it… :(
