I think my mom is planning something....

I am not sure what is going on, but my mom has been talking on the phone a lot lately and making plans for next week. I think she is going somewhere - and I don't get to go. She bought me a big bag of food and some new snacks - I think it is a trick. This time I won't fall for it! I will know when the big green bags come up from the basement that she is leaving me. I better start working on my plan - will I hide under the bed? what about behind the couch? maybe I want to be outside? I need to find out how long she is going to be gone -- and who is going to be kitty sitting me this time.
