Pet Sitter Job in Kingsport, Tennessee

I'm an
Individual
I am looking for someone to watch my cat Sunni, and my 2 ferrets Link and Blinx in their home. I am going to be staying in a camper for up to 2 months, and cannot take them with unfortunately. All three animals are raw fed and MUST stay this way. Sunni has urinary complications when fed ANY kibble or non-raw food, so we have been very strict with this. Link and Blinx are bonded ferrets who have a playpen that they stay in, and use puppy pads for the restroom. They will also need to stay in their raw diet, because they get sickly when they are off of it. Link sleeps most of the time and love to cuddle and will sleep on your lap. Blinx has a lot of energy, and if you have time to take out of the play pen, feel free to do so. Just be sure the play area is ferret-proofed, and that they have used the bathroom before getting out! I will supply all supplies and food, along with plenty of blankets and a couple of beds to swap out. Otherwise a simply feeding, watering, and changing the pads is enough. Their nails will be completely trimmed before this, so if you do not feel comfortable or have not done it before, they should be fine. Sunni is a very loveable cat. He does well with using his scratch posts, using the bathroom, and he does know the command no. He will need time to acclimate to the new environment, so I recommend just giving him a day or two of just leaving him alone. When he comes out, then he can be fed. He is fed mostly whole prey, with a little grind included, to give him variety in his diet. The whole prey consists of quail and rats, and the grinds will be anything from ground whole chicken, to ground whole rabbit or beaver, etc. When feeding Sunni, put it out, and what he doesn't eat in about 10-15 minutes, needs to get put up. I offer food 3 times a day. Sunni is a sweet cat and once he warms up will be all over you for attention. If you plan on leaving him locked in a room for any reason (he is an escape artist, so if you have a lot of people in and out of your home during certain times, putting him up would be highly recommended), I will bring you his kennel, which he is acclimated to, that way he doesn't scratch anything up. I am not reliable for any damages caused by the cat and 2 ferrets, but they have never caused damage in my home, so i doubt that will ever be an issue.
