Cattery

The cattery at Collaton Kennels is located far away from the dogs boarding in the kennels, so you can be assured that your cat will enjoy a safe and comfortable stay with us. With the radios on all the time and heating turned on when required, the cattery is a safe haven by the office so cats can watch people come and go all the time and interact with them.

For more details about booking your cat in to stay with us, please read our information here.

Our cattery pens include

  • Three levels to climb up/down
  • Soft, cosy bedding, washed and changed throughout their stay where necessary
  • Scratch posts and toys
  • Heating and fans (when required)
  • Radio playing throughout the day
  • Long list of dry and tinned/wet foods to cater for your cat
  • No charge for administering medication, including insulin
  • Lots of fuss and attention

Things to remember before bringing your cat to stay with us

  • Vaccination booklet showing in-date booster vaccinations: new customers cannot drop their pets off without presenting proof of vaccinations, and returning customers need to provide us with evidence of updated vaccines.
  • Drop off: latest drop off day of arrival is 4.30pm to give your cat as long as possible to have time to settle in its pen. The pen is allocated to your pet from the start of the day so it is up to the owner when they drop off.
  • Medication (if required): enough to last the whole stay if it is an ongoing condition. We will discuss specific amounts, timings, methods when we check your pet in.
  • Food: feel free to check with us if we stock your pet’s food, and if not please bring it along with you. Quantities and feeding times can be discussed at check in.
  • Bedding: we have fresh, clean bedding available at all times to keep your pets cosy and comfortable. If you think it will benefit your cat, by all means bring along a favourite blanket and/or some toys from home. Having smells they are familiar with often helps to calm and settle the cat more.
  • Contact details: owners fill out a check in form upon arrival and there are options for your own contact details and local/friend’s contact details too. We will also need the name of your vet, just in case, although we will use our 24 hour vet in case of emergency.
