Cat Boarding Done Right: What to Look for in a Cattery

Cats may be independent by nature — but when it comes to being away from home, they still need comfort, security, and a space that feels safe.

Whether you're traveling, moving, or renovating your home, choosing the right cattery is essential to your cat’s well-being. And not all facilities are created equal.

At Pawsome Friends, we know what matters to cats (and their humans). Here's what to look for — and what we proudly offer — when boarding your feline friend.

1. A Quiet Environment

Look for a cattery that provides a completely separate and sound-insulated area just for cats. The environment should be calm, quiet, and low-stress.

Our cattery is entirely separate from our dog daycare and boarding areas. It’s peaceful, temperature-controlled, and designed with feline needs in mind.

2. Clean, Hygienic & Comfortable Spaces

A quality cattery should be spotless, well-ventilated, and odor-free. Every cat should have its own private space with cozy bedding, fresh litter, and regular cleaning protocols.

At Pawsome Friends: Each cat enjoys an individual suite with soft bedding, clean litter trays, and daily sanitization. We maintain strict hygiene standards for your cat’s health and safety.

3. Space to Hide & Climb

Cats feel secure when they have control over their environment. Look for cubbies or hiding spots, vertical shelves, and areas to climb or perch.

Our cattery features multi-level enclosures, cozy hideaways, and window views that help reduce anxiety and make your cat feel at home.

4. Attention to Routine & Diet

Cats are creatures of habit. A good cattery will ask about your cat’s feeding routine, special diet, and preferences — and stick to them as closely as possible.

We follow your cat’s meal plan to the letter and offer individualized care to keep them comfortable and well-fed. You’re welcome to bring their favorite food, treats, or toys too!

5. Staff That Understands Cats

Not every pet handler is a cat person — but your cat deserves a caretaker who gets feline behavior, body language, and boundaries.

Our team is trained to read cat cues, provide gentle interaction when welcomed, and respect your cat’s space when needed.

Choose Comfort, Not Compromise

A good cattery doesn’t just offer a place to stay — it offers peace of mind.

At Pawsome Friends, we’ve created a feline-friendly environment where your cat can rest, play, and adjust at their own pace. Whether you’re gone for a day or a week, we’ll make sure your cat is comfortable, cared for, and content.
