How much food and water do I need to supply my cat when I go away for 3 weeks?

I live alone and have a new cat but need to go away for a 3 week business trip. If I leave a very big bowl with 21 days worth of food and a big bowl with 21 days worth of water will that be enough? Should I leave extra food in case the cat mismanages its intake and eats all the food and drinks all the water in the first 10 days?

Please find someone to come in daily or at the least every other day to feed your cat and give it fresh water, clean the litterbox and play with it.

that is WAY WAY WAY WAY too long for a cat to be left alone for. 48 hrs is too long. if you can’t find someone to come into your Home to take care of your cat you should find somewhere to board your cat, maybe the vet’s office will do it or know of a good place.

  1. no… you should book your cat into a cattery and pay for someone to look after it. Be responsible, if you can’t then at least give the cat a chance of a loving home and contact the RSPCA to rehome it.

    Is this a wind-up?

  2. Well, if you leave all of the food out at once, the cat will eat it all before you come home. What I suggest is that you get these types of feeders which look like they have a water tank on it, and you fill it with food, and whenever the bowl get empty it fills it back up again. You can get these for food and water, just go to a petstore, or Petstop by you.

    That or put it into a phasility where they take care of your cat for you (I forget the name sorry), and they your cat will get to play with other cats, so it will be very happy

  3. This Is An Extremley Stupid Idea … Why Dont You Ask A friend Or Family Member To Look After Her … Or Even Your Neighbour To Go In Once A Day And Feed Her … Or You Could Take Her To A Cattery For Three Weeks …

  4. 3 weeks is a really long time to leave your cat at home alone. once it’s litter box gets full, it’ll start peeing and crapping all over the house. get a friend to watch it for you or look into pet hotels.

  5. I wouldnt leave the cat home alone I would get like a critter nanny to come to your house every 3 days or so.

  6. Please, please, don’t just leave your cat alone for three weeks, even if you think that you’ve left it with enough food for this time, it won’t regulate its food to last three weeks, and what you are suggesting is in fact neglect. You must have a neighbour or friend who would be willing to pop in daily to feed it, or if not book it into your local cattery, also there are often ads in the local papers for pet sitting services.

  8. I really don’t think you should leave a bunch of food out for your cat and go away for that long.

    You must have a friend, or hire a pet sitter to come and check and feed your cat, at least twice a week.

    Cats can go for about 3 days with a large bowl of dry, and a pet water fountain. They do NOT NEED canned food while you are away, they DO NEED their litter box scooped or changed every few days

    Someone will need to come check on the food, water, and litterbox, not to mention your cat!
