About the Cattery

You can be confident that we have considered every factor and complied to the regulations and requirements on designing and building our boarding chalets.

Our Cattery is situated in and utilises a renovated barn. We have 8 chalets within the barn, all enjoying the ‘indoor feel’ with a high exposed-beam ceiling, cottage windows and a stable door. We have another 8 chalets built onto the back of the barn, all enjoying the ‘outdoor feel’ with a clear plastic corrugated roof, large windows and lots of natural light. Introductory visits are encouraged and you are given to the opportunity to request your preferred chalet depending on which side you feel your cat will be most at home.

Every chalet features a raised sleep compartment, designed with warmth and security in mind, with a window and a cat-flap accessed by a wide ladder onto the full length shelf. The space underneath the sleep compartment is therefore available as part of the run, resulting in more floor area to play on and somewhere private for their tray to be situated. The chalets are separated by top quality clear full height sneeze barriers and mesh, which ensures each cat can see their neighbour without any risk of contact and enjoy very spacious surroundings. All sleep compartments are insulated and lined, and also contain a very effective ceramic heat lamp.

We recommend that you bring something familiar to your cat (regardless of its worn condition!) for extra comfort, although we provide suitable bedding and a scratch-pole etc, if required.

We endeavour to treat our residents as their individual needs require with the intention of ensuring old and young cats alike will not feel unsettled. This includes maintaining any special dietary requirements, be it pure indulgence or a specific need! Therefore, whilst food is provided, you have the option of bringing your own.

Our experience in various animal care establishments results in a clear picture when we were designing our Cattery therefore our unique chalets are clean and hygienic whilst being very cozy and welcoming.
