Maybe the example you are talking about proves me otherwise, but I don't think it is a good idea to take a cat on vacation, they are very sensitive to new environments and doing so could be very stressful to them. However there are too many irresponsible pet owners, it's not that hard to call up the neighbor kid and pay him 20 bucks to look after your animals.
