Cat in a home prepared for time away, with water supplies and care equipment
AI-assisted editorial illustration. Equipment does not replace a person’s care.

A care sheet supports the sitter. It cannot replace one.

Review the instructions together and check the contact details before departure. Cats Protection advises at least twice-daily visits during holidays, with more frequent care for some cats depending on age and health.

This sheet is a Félinscope editorial organiser, not an individually vet-approved protocol. Access checks and visit updates are practical additions.
