Before you leave do this…

make sure any opened bedroom/bathroom doors cannot be fully closed…so kitty doesn’t get himself stuck in a room by accidentally shutting the door on himself. We put something heavy in front of doors to prevent them from closing… Or close doors of rooms you don’t want kitty to go into.

RIGHT BEFORE you leave…do a visual of your pet(s)…to make sure that one hasn’t gotten himself stuck somewhere before you leave (like in a closed room/closet/drawer/ whatever).

Personally, I don’t like the toilet water idea…I fill up my huge pasta pot with water and set it in the sink…just in case they run out of water.
