That's it isn't it. It comes down to how much you need them I think. Don't get me wrong I would never leave them unless I knew they would be as happy or happier but at the end of the day, unlike dogs, cats tend to be fine as long as they're fed. I'm sure they would love the next door neighbour more than us if they started feeding them juicy felix cat food when we only feed them dry food.

It is sooo expensive tho, and you've got to think what else you can do with the grand (at least) shipping fees, and how traumatic the journey itself will be for them.
