I should expect this by now. When we leave town for any length of time, there will be a pile of cat puke in the house when we return.

She has done it two weekends in a row, now. And I believe she’s done it for years before that — I just haven’t paid as much attention to know if it’s truly a pattern.

The last two weeks – we left town both times to ski with friends. Last weekend, she puked on the stairs minutes after we got home. This weekend, she puked at the entrance to our bedroom some time before our return.

The vet thinks it’s stress…exacerbating her “irritable bowels.” I can buy that.

We’ll be home for a good stretch now. No trips planned. Let’s test the theory.
