I don't travel much. I never did. Traveling is hard for me, not only because I'm poor and have no free time at all, but traveling is hard because I'm too attached to my cat and he gets far too paranoid for me to leave. I'm sorry.
If you can't understand, allow me to explain this a bit more for you.
As a child, I never traveled. My parents never owned a car and we lived off a fairly low income then as well. Because of our situation, we never really left the city so traveling was never a priority of mine. Sure, I love long car rides with music blasting (all the cliche best friend stuff). But, it's never really something I expected to happen or really desired. Once my cat came into my life, this all intensified much more.
When I met my cat, or as I'd like to call him, my son, he was a tiny little baby living in my backyard. Immediately, we grew a bond like no other. Anyone that sees him interact with me say they've never see a cat bond so well with a human. Before we took him into my home, I would always sneak outside and feed him food. This probably played a role in why he would never leave our yard. Eventually, he became part of the family and we took him into our home. From then on, my cat and I grew up together. He's been through almost every stage of my awkward teenage years with me, and still accepts me.
Over the years, my cat learned my daily routine. He knows when I leave for work and when I come home, and if I'm home later than I should be, he actually screams at me. No lie, my cat will sit on the coffee table and meow at me until I sit down. In actuality, my cat suffers from severe separation anxiety. It's getting pretty bad actually.
But in conclusion, I'm really sorry I'm not able to go out as much as you would like me too. I'm also sorry I'm not able to travel around with everyone as much as it's wished I would. It's not against you or anything, but my cat needs me.
If you have any issues, take it up with my cat.
