Stay
Each room is equipped with two cameras, one pointing towards the bed and another one in the catio. The view covers a big proportion of the room so you should usually be able to see your cat, however some platforms located closer to the ceiling and skylights may not be in view.
On arrival you will be provided with the login instructions so you can access the service from mobile devices 24/7.
Feeding
Cats: wellbeing
All cats have different temperaments, and we would like to get as much information as possible to help your cat adapt well in our hotel. Some of our guests will settle with ease while more nervous ones may need some extra attention. If we care for a cat that is more wary, we encourage you to bring something with a familiar scent on it to help them feel more like home. We will also keep a close eye on your cat and provide you with regular updates.
We understand that separating from your cat can be a stressful event for both cat and you. In our provision we put extra effort into minimising stress and allowing your cat to display all natural feline behaviours, provide enough enrichment to prevent boredom.
All our cat guests have access to indoor and outdoor areas, multi-level platforms for climbing, scratching surfaces, plenty of visible wildlife for them to watch, ambient background music, Feliway diffuser as standard and daily human interaction and play.
However, if your cat typically suffers from severe separation anxiety we would discourage using a cattery at any time and recommend consulting a feline behaviourist.
The outdoor cats can be just as happy in the boarding as the indoor cats providing, they are neutered/spayed. Our pens have full height walls between the pens so it will minimise potential territorial stress as well as they will have access to catios through a cat flap.
The outdoor space allows our guests to do what they normally do outdoors: stalk wildlife! Several studies showed that giving an outdoor cat an opportunity to stalk their potential prey from a distance is sufficient enrichment.
It is important to distinguish playing from fighting. Cats from multiple cat households will often “pretend fight” and it is a typical feline behaviour. In normal play cats will be taking turns, display friendly body language and will not cause injuries to one another. If you are not sure whether your cats play or fight you can learn some more following this link.
In case of presence of aggression between your cat we would be able to board them in separate pens.
