Living with pets clearly has its benefits, as they are incredibly enjoyable to spend time with.
However, we have to leave from time to time.
Some people may work around the clock, others visit their dachas or go on business trips for several days.
With a dog, the answer is simple: one animal cannot stand it for so long. But with cats, the question is more complicated, since everything necessary can be located in the apartment.
For how long can an animal be left alone at home?
Experts agree that the safest and most comfortable period of time will be 24 hours. During this time, the pet in most cases will not even notice its loneliness.
If you clean the litter box properly, refresh the water and food bowl, and provide a comfortable bed, your absence will go unnoticed.
In most cases, cats will prefer to rest during this time.
The maximum period of time a cat can spend alone is 72 hours. A longer period will be dangerous for the pet's mental health, so even providing the animal with comfortable conditions will not help.
