The Curious Mom

We understand the gravity of such a situation. Hence, we brought up a blog post which will serve as a guideline for the parents. This will help you come up with a plan to deal with children when making the big move.

To begin with, the first step should be to think systematically. How will you break the news to your kids? Yes! You cannot just tell them, "Hey, pack up! We got to move". That is a big no. There has to be a decent approach to this. It is only natural to be vulnerable at such an age and there has to be some way to handle this vulnerability element.

Delicious, nutritious, and colorful, fruits have a wonderful appearance apart from great taste. You can create a basket full of perfectly arranged fruits, to add a royal touch to your table for guests, a source of attractive snacks to your celebration or a wholesome, cheery gift to loved ones, especially those who are unwell.

It is possible to purchase fruit gift baskets, but they may be prohibitively expensive. In case basket is for someone close, for your own use, or you will be delivering it in person, you have the opportunity to save money and customize your design by arranging the basket yourself.

Here are some tips to create perfect fruit hampers or gourmet food hampers:

If you’re like many people, the words “kids” and “fun vacation” don’t always go together. As a parent, it can be a challenge to take a fun trip with small children. It requires extra preparation, more travel expenses, and at times, emotional breakdowns in airport terminals. However, traveling with your kids can still be a fun, memorable, way to build lasting bonds with your children. The following suggestions will help you plan a great trip with your kids that won’t break the bank.

1. Rent a House

Hotel rooms can be very expensive, especially when you need multiple beds. If you rent a house or apartment you can often save money, especially if you’re traveling with multiple people. Home sharing sites like Airbnb, VRBO, or FlipKey are a few great places to start to look for deals on accommodations. Plus, you can meet local people who live in the area and know the neighborhoods and destinations that you’re visiting.

2. Pack Lunches for the Day

Eating out can be a huge traveling expense, especially if you have multiple hungry mouths to feed. If you eat out every day with several people you are likely going to be spending a lot. One way to cut down costs is to go to a local grocery store and buy groceries to make sack lunches. This will be much less than paying for restaurant meals, plus you can eat on the go and save time for fun sightseeing activities.

How long can you leave a cat alone? It is different with every cat. Some cats are super-independent and like to be alone for most of the time, while others move from room to room wherever you go, following you like a shadow.

Also remember that it’s not the same if you’re leaving your four-pawed friend alone overnight, for a few days, or for a week or even more. You’ll need to make different arrangements and preparations dependable on how long you plan to leave your cat alone.

Let’s say you wanted to go to a mini holiday and you want to leave your cat alone for couple of days. In my experience this is a better option than bringing your cat with you. Cats are actually scared of new environment, and sometimes they go crazy when they find themselves in the unknown. They may try to run, and that’s the scariest scenario for any pet owner. So what preparations should you make when leaving your cat alone for 2-3 days?

After paw4paw review and testing several cats we found best way to leave your cat alone.

You should leave multiple bowls full of your cat’s favorite dry food and water of course. Next thing is to add at least one more litter box. Note that all litter boxes need to be completely clean before you leave. Since cats are very neat and clean animals and sometimes they wouldn’t even go near the dirty litter box. Make sure you have someone, like a neighbor, a family member or a friend to come to your house once a day, just to check on her, pour some fresh water and clean the litter.

This last part is not necessary, but it is for the best, because cats are very social animals. And when they go without company for more than 24 hours, they will pee on the carpet or poop in the shower, just to get back at you for leaving them all alone. I’ve seen this multiple times. Also, if you have a garden, make sure that all the windows are closed, you don’t want your kitty to running away after some bird or insect. In case you leave in an apartment and you have a balcony, make sure that your balcony is cat proof, because cats sometimes tend to jump from them.

If you’re arranging a sitter or boarding your cat, it’s worth confirming vaccination requirements well before you go. In the UAE there are specific recommendations and legal considerations for feline vaccines; for a clear rundown of essential and optional shots, see Cat vaccinations in Dubai. Scheduling any needed boosters a few weeks before travel gives your cat time to develop protection and lets you discuss concerns with your vet.

In case you have to leave your cat alone for 4 days or more, you’ll have to get a sitter. They have to visit your cat at least once, but preferably twice a day, to refill your kitty’s food and water bowls and to clean out dirty litter. This is a fine arrangement for up to two weeks. If you plan to leave your cat alone for more than that, you should get a house sitter.

Make sure that you have plenty of your cat’s favorite food and treats stocked and replace all of her favorite toys that are getting worn. If you can’t find anyone you know who can take care of your cat while you’re gone, you can always kneel your cat at a local veterinary clinic or a pet hotel. You can do this up to two weeks, once or twice a year. I personally would never do this because I just don’t feel comfortable leaving my cats with complete strangers.

Since cats are social animals, they shouldn’t be left completely alone for more than 3 days, and even that can only happen if you made necessary precautions, like providing enough food, water, litter boxes. If you plan to leave your cat alone for 4 days or more, you have to get a sitter that’s going to visit your kitty at least once a day. And if you’re gone for more than 2 weeks, get a family member or a friend to move to your house and take care of your pet until you’re able to get back.
