Hi, what do you do about their care when you go on holiday and what is the longest amount of time you would left them? Thanks, Emma
Hi Emma, I usually get a friend to look after them and brief them well
I try and make sure that they are at least checked on once a day if Im away, I know that they could go longer if they need to and have enough food, but I don’t like to leave them too long.
