However, you will need to provide your own food if your cat requires a special prescription diet. Our feline friends are sensitive to chlorine water, so we provide them daily fresh and filtered water.

Cats on Medication

We are happy to administer any medication during your cats stay.

Our Guests Always Leave Relaxed and Happy

Didn’t like been locked in a cage, but my three cats loved it. They told me the food was great ,beds were soft and cuddly and cathy was like a mammy to them. Silly me for trying to stay there myself.

I have been leaving my cat Clinton with Cathy and Gary for years now. Great service, friendly people and one of the most flexible catteries I have dealt with with regards to drop off and pick up times.

Always happy to leave my cat with Cathys Cattery, he comes back relaxed and playful. Also enjoy the peace of mind having a 24 hour vet Gary on premises.

I just picked up Pixel from Cathys Cattery. She is totally relaxed and happy. Thank you Cathy for looking after her so well. She really appreciated the quiet surroundings and the fact that it’s a cats only! Will definitely be back again. Monica C.
