How We Care

We promise to do everything we can
to ensure your cat has the loveliest holiday.

Here's a little insight into how we care for our guests:

Getting To Know You

Getting To Know You

It is always a pleasure to meet a new guest, learn what they love, their likes and dislikes, what they love doing, and participate in the blossoming of their character as they relax into their stay.

As we get to know them so well, we're perfectly prepared for their next holiday.

We are here to help make your cat happy and fulfilled while you are away.

Settling You In

Settling You In

Our top priority is one of the most important things you can do for cats, which is to provide extra care and support to help them settle in.

Our settling in process starts with being able to keep your cat's own carriage (travel basket) in their room to help them adjust and allow them to come and join us when they are ready.

We are happy to provide (or utilise your own) calming measures, including relaxing scents and supplements. We encourage comfort items from home too.

The oodles of personal time we spend with your cat is one of our star attractions. It's so important in helping cats feel safe, secure and loved. We earn their trust every day in all sorts of different ways and it all adds up to a much happier and faster settling-in time.

Comfort Items

Comfort Items

We're big on comfort items, so we always recommend you bring something from home that smells familiar to your cat, as it really does help them to settle into their new environment much faster.

It can be small, like favourite toys, or just something you've worn recently so your reassuring scent will be a comfort to your cat while you're away.

Or it can be something big, like a piece of furniture.

As you can see, Millie is very happy to have her (very much used and loved) glamorous tropical island cat tree from home with her!

Purrsonal Time

Purrsonal Time

One-to-one cuddle time is top of our daily care schedule, as it's vital for our guests' wellbeing, as well as being something we absolutely love to do!

If your cat loves a cuddle, gentle stroking, feeling loved, then we will happily provide it.

We have the best job in the world, as we delight in making cats happy!

You can see our favourite holiday snaps in our Guest Galleries later on this website.

We also have thousands of photos of our guests on our Facebook page showing this, as well as responses from our lovely customers while they're away.

We fall in love with our cat guests every day!

Play Time & Toys

Play Time & Toys

Play time is so important - when your cat is settled in enough and ready to play, we'll know.

We have a library of cat toys, ideas and games for all ages and interests, it's a question of personal matchmaking for each guest.

Guest Gallery - Playing with Toys

We introduce new games and novel things, hide treats for them to find and make exciting fluffy, ribboned or feathered objects fly for their entertainment!

You'll know what your cat loves, so you can give us a head start. We'll build on that to make their eyes shine brightly with what they love to do. After all, holiday time should be play time!

Presents

Presents

If you have a present for your cat while you're away, we will happily provide it on the day you choose.

Here is Rolo playing with his Christmas present, a chunky knitted penguin he can roll about with, who happens to be sporting a very fluffy, feathery lime green scarf which is very, very exciting!

And sometimes, just a nice new cardboard box is the best thing ever.

It's all down to purrsonal choice!

Something special, Sir? Must-have-morsel Ma'am?

If you want to provide your cat's favourite treats, or a special treat for their holiday, we will happily give them at the times you specify.

As you can see, they are ALWAYS appreciated in your absence!

Water

Naturally, fresh, clean water is available at all times.

Filtered Water

We provide filtered water to all our guests for the best taste and it also encourages them to keep fully hydrated.

Water Fountains

Does your cat have their own water fountain? You are very welcome to bring it with you!

Water Bowls

Multiple bowls are available for multi-cat families, or cats with kidney disease who must drink often.


Grooming

Grooming

We will happily cater for your cat's daily grooming needs.

This calm, caring act helps keep your cat in tip-top condition, as well as it being another way of providing some more quality one-to-one time.


DIY Grooming

DIY Grooming

We have installed DIY grooming pads on some wall corners, which acts as a brush at head height, so your cat can have a groom, scent mark and have a scratch whenever they please.

That's a lot of fluffy fur, we'd better get started!

Cat Litter

Cat Litter

We provide natural wood pellets litter for guests.

However, you are welcome to bring your cat's favourite cat litter, as keeping things the same is important to many cats.

This means a great deal to particularly fussy cats!


Medical History

Please ensure that your cat's full pre-existing and relevant medical history is declared on our booking form.


Medication

Medication

We will give any required injections and medication to your cat at no extra cost.

It is all part of our personal care.

Rest assured, we will contact your own vet should the need arise.

We want to ensure everything possible is ready to help your cat be comfortable and well during their stay, so please do contact us with any health or medical query you may have about your cat's condition and care while on holiday.


Vaccinations

Pad Thai relaxing and posing!

Vaccinations

Naturally, the health and welfare of all our guests is of paramount importance to us, so we cannot accept any cat without proof of up-to-date inoculations.

Treatments

Cats must be treated for parasites and worms regularly.


Special Care

Shelby content and smiling close to the camera!

Special Care

We will give any required injections and medication to your cat at no extra cost.

We are happy to discuss any special requirements your cat has. We're here to provide loving care with extra help and kindness.

As you will see, some of our guests need a little extra help while recovering, have a medical condition or need more warmth.

We'll make sure you get everything you need, won't we Shelby!
