Our Boarding Facilities
Each cat is housed individually in a clean and comfortable boarding enclosure.
We aim to provide:
- Comfortable bedding
- Fresh water available at all times
- Daily feeding according to your cat’s routine
- Regular cleaning and hygiene management

For cats that enjoy interaction, supervised time outside their enclosure may also be provided where suitable and safe.
What Should I Bring?
To help your cat feel at home, we encourage owners to bring:
- Their usual food
- Any prescribed medications

- Familiar toys (optional)
Maintaining your cat’s normal routine often helps reduce stress during boarding.
Medication Administration
We can administer many medications during your cat’s stay.
Examples include:
- Tablets
- Capsules
- Liquid medications
- Prescription diets
Please advise our team at the time of booking regarding any medical conditions or medications your cat requires.
Vaccination Requirements
To protect all boarding guests, we generally require cats to be up to date with their vaccinations prior to boarding.
If your cat’s vaccinations are due, our team can discuss vaccination requirements before your booking.

- Senior cats

Please contact us to discuss your cat’s individual needs.
