When I was child free I still had my two house cats which unfortunately was a hindrance on being able to do an impromptu holiday abroad.
Paying someone to watch two cats is usually a lot cheaper and easier to arrange than tickets and accommodation for two additional people, I'd say
Also boarding the animals is also an option.
Yeah, I've got 2 kids while my sister is child free with a cat and a dog. I take my kids everywhere with very little issues, while we constantly have to accommodate her and her pets when going on vacation, the restaurant or anywhere really.
Fyi childfree means surrogatechildfree as well
It does? I thought pets are a lot easier to care for than children.
It absolutely does not. Childfree applies to human children only (including surrogacy, which you shouldn't be doing anyway because that's fucked up -- but that's a whole other can of worms)
