1663.0. "** CAT SITTER NEEDED **" by FSHQA1::HLEINONEN () Wed Aug 17 1988 12:29

    		    -><  CAT SITTER NEEDED A.S.A.P.  ><-

                    
    	     I'll be out of town on business from August 24th
    	     through 31st and need someone to housesit my two
    	     kitties.  I'd prefer someone to stay in the apartment
    	     with them, but would also be happy with someone
    	     who will just stop in twice a day. I live in
             Clinton, just outside of Worcester.
    
             I'm willing to pay, but am not sure how much to offer.
             Any suggestions? Has anyone ever used a "service" before?
    	     Obviously I'm not willing to leave my "children" with
             just anybody - and a kennel is OUT OF THE QUESTION.


             Any suggestions would be more than welcome.....

    Heidi,
    
    Call your vet and ask his/her AHT if they would be interested in
    making some extra money by looking after your cats.
    
    I pay $10.00 a day.  For this I get two visits, morning and evening,
    grooming, feeding, watering (cats and plants), scooping, mail service
    and newspaper service.  I ask the sitter to stay an hour each visit
    and play with the cats.  I have seven cats, but she usually only
    sits for 5 at a time since I am usually away at a cat show with
    two of them.
    
    You will also have peace of mind knowing that a trained professional
    is looking after your babies.

    Question, what is AHT - sounds like a good idea to me...

    An AHT is an Animal Health Technician, also known as a Veterinary
    Assistant in some parts.
