Snuck is a word. A fun word IMO.

Good plan. Less traumatic than going somewhere else.

And you really think so? I was just gonna immobilize it with an ace bandage and call it a day.

The cat sitting thing is tough. I have a uch easier time asking people to watch my dog than my cats. The feeding isn't bad. The litter box is what makes me hesitate. I hate to ask someone to deal with that mess.

I'm not officially sure. One my English teachers would almost turn red with anger if anyone said "snuck." I say sneaked now.

It could be one of those instances where the official word is "sneaked," but due to usage "snuck" became widely accepted. I don't know, though.

The teacher seriously threw an eraser once (not at anyone) due to a student using the word. It really got on his nerves.

I looked it up in my Oxford New American dictionary. Snuck is past and past participle of sneak. Perfectly OK.

Snuck is okay here in Aus too - though our past tenses for a number of words are different from yours. For example, when we have finished diving, we dived (not dove) and if we were dragging something yesterday, we dragged it (not drug it). There are a few others, but I can't think of them right now.

The Oxford New American Dictionary needs to tell spell check that it is a word, then.
