Finding the right person to look after your pets when you go away can be a tricky task. Afterall your dog, cat, guinea pig or rabbit is really another member of the family and you want to make sure they’re taken care of properly.
Yet one woman who hired a cat-sitter had a bizarre experience after the family’s cat accidentally came on holiday with them. Unfortunately the cat-sitter hadn’t realised the moggie was missing, the Mirror reports.
This led to a rather awkward exchange as the cat-sitter began to lie when the owner asked how the cat was doing. Mum-of-two Meagan, who lives in Idaho, went viral on TikTok after she revealed their cat Figgy had snuck into their camper van on their camping trip.

After initially planning to send her back home with a friend, they decided to let the moggie stay - as she seemed to be enjoying the trip. In fact, Meagan said she behaved better while camping than she normally does at home - so that's a plus.
But she left people gobsmacked after sharing a pretty weird exchange she claimed to have with the cat-sitter. In it, she messaged: "Hey! How's the cat doing?," knowing that the moggie had snuck into the caravan, and was on holiday with them.
But the cat-sitter apparently replied: "Great! Just checked on her, she's so sweet."
Well, that's awkward.
Meagan bluntly replied: "She snuck in our camper," along with a pic of the cheeky cat. Her video detailing the exchange racked up more than 400,000 views and left viewers reeling at the claim from the cat-sitter.
One viewer commented: "I would totally get a new cat sitter for sure though."
Another wrote: "The cat sitter probably thought she left the cat out and didn't want to tell you. She was probably frantically looking for that cat."
"I'm a pet sitter and I would have said ''I've looked everywhere and I know didn't run out when I walked inside. HELP?!"
