Cat intelligence is evident in their ability to adapt, learn through observation, and solve problems. Research has shown they possess strong memories, exhibit neuroplasticity, and display cognitive skills comparable to those of a young child. Cat communication includes meowing, purring, trilling, hissing, growling, grunting, and body language. It can hear sounds too faint or too high in frequency for human ears, such as those made by small mammals. It secretes and perceives pheromones.

Female domestic cats can have kittens from spring to late autumn in temperate zones and throughout the year in equatorial regions, with litter sizes often ranging from two to five kittens. Domestic cats are bred and shown at cat fancy events as registered pedigreed cats. Population control includes spaying and neutering, but pet abandonment has exploded the global feral cat population, which has driven the extinction of bird, mammal, and reptile species.

An expatriate is an individual temporarily or permanently relocating to a country other than their native country. The individual relocating would be considered an immigrant in their new country.

On the Holmes and Rahe stress scale for adults, “change of residence” is considered a stressful activity, assigned 20 points (with the death of a spouse being ranked the highest at 100), although other changes on the scale (e.g., “change in living conditions”, “change in social activities”) often occur as a result of relocating, making the overall stress level potentially higher.

Various studies have found that moving house is often particularly stressful for children and is sometimes associated with long-term psychological problems.

Pressure points for international assignees include challenges of a new job, inability to participate in activities available at home, loss of peer support, language and other cultural difficulties, and worker’s spouse being unable to find work.

“Absolutely fantastic experience!”
I was nervous leaving my golden retriever, Bailey, for the first time, but this pet sitting service went above and beyond. I received daily updates, including photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease. Bailey looked happy, well-exercised, and clearly adored. It’s such a relief knowing I can travel without worrying. Will definitely book again!

“My pets LOVE them!”
I have a high-energy border collie and a shy older cat, and both instantly warmed up to their sitter. That never happens. The attention to each pet’s individual needs was amazing. They followed my instructions perfectly and even left a handwritten note with little stories from their visits. Such a personal touch!

“Reliable, professional, and caring.”
I’ve used a few pet sitters in the past, but this one stands out. They took care of my two cats while I was away on business, and I came home to calm, well-fed, and content kitties. They even watered my plants without me asking! It’s rare to find someone so detail-oriented and kind. Highly recommended.
