Reviews
I'm sure that if Rusty could talk he would highly recommend this place. Looking at all the photos he starring in on Facebook he met and made a lot of new friends. This place is clean, friendly and recommended by us.
Lisa has gone above and beyond looking after my elderly mum and her precious cat. The pickup and drop-off service has been a lifesaver. For a 90-year-old who finds the process stressful, having someone so kind makes all the difference.
Your cat is supremely looked after here. It is their resort while you have your holiday. Nice and peaceful, lots of equipment for them to walk, climb, play, hide in.
My cat Lily absolutely loved it here! They post regularly to Facebook, so you can see how your fluff ball is doing. The price is more than reasonable.
