Established in 1999, Pennybeck Cat Lodge is a family-run business owned and operated by Sheila and Trevor Scrivener. Our facility, set in two acres of south-facing grounds in Norwich, provides expert care for cats through purpose-built, heated lodges with individual runs. We prioritise feline comfort and safety with insulated sleeping quarters, natural light, and full-height sneeze barriers between accommodations. Our premises feature CCTV and alarm systems to ensure pet security, with special provisions for elderly or infirm cats requiring walk-in runs. We cater to dietary needs and medication requirements while maintaining strict hygiene standards through regular flea and worm treatments.

With over 25 years of experience in cat care, we combine professional expertise with genuine compassion to create a stress-free environment for all guests. Our team welcomes visitors during regular hours without appointment, offering transparency and direct engagement with our operations. We maintain strong relationships with local veterinary services to address any health concerns promptly.
