He got up and said "Excuse me. I have to take Gracie to potty." Our guests could not believe what they were hearing. And DH was a bit embarrassed when he realized how stupid it sounded. But he continued to accommodate Gracie like this till the day she died. She would actually hold it till he got home from work. Cats are weird and the people who love them are even weirder!

Speaking as another totally devoted/trained human, I completely understand what your DH went through.
Getting strange looks from friends & family just goes with the territory. Had I been one of your guests, I wouldn't have given it a second thought.... having 'walked a mile in his shoes' and all of that. Sounds like you picked the right guy.
