Staycations have been all the rage this year, thanks to the global pandemic, and to be honest I’m glad we can leave the house at all. My lovely in-laws decided to ‘escape’ their idyllic home in the countryside to go visiting some touristy places on the east coast, leaving behind their beautiful and friendly eight year old cat, Arthur, for us to cat sit. They live a couple of hours away, and with the amount of stuff we loaded into the car, it certainly felt like going on holiday for a week!
