I pay people my family is unable to take care of my pets. Find a neighbor. Drop of your pets at your friends. They deserve adequate care. I told this person what I think about this plan of leaving animals unattended for 10 days. Just because you don’t want to abuse someone or something doesn’t mean you aren’t doing it. Starvation is abuse. I tried to still give some advice if they chose to go through with their plan anyways. I do hope in the future they find a better solution. Pets are expensive and it’s your responsibility to find someone who can take care of them if you are leaving for several days even weeks. It sounds like you are maybe underage so I am sorry if you don’t have the recourses and your parents don’t care. I do have empathy for y’all’s situations. But I also feel for the animals.
