Which is also something I can just not comprehend as a pet owner (cat / dog). I already feel bad leaving my dog alone for a few hours a week lol. (With a cat, less so. They are less dramatic about being left alone.. :) )
EDIT: forgot to close a parenthesis and the LISPer in me panicked.

I have two male cats, brothers, of which one becomes very needy and whiny after I'm gone for a few days (hes a needy little guy). He stays close, follows me around, whines and mews for attention, and sleeps on the bed with me or next to it. After a week this behavior dies down to normal levels of attention and he goes back to sleeping in the basement or the living room. His brother doesn't exhibit this behavior even though he is equally affectionate.
Was camping just recently and away for a week the other month and both times I get an ear full on return in the form of loud yowls as if he's yelling "where the hell were you!"
