Cat Boarding
Our luxury chalets provide comfortable stays for cats. Double Chalets accommodate two cats, while Family Chalets house up to four. Removable panels allow six-cat family groups. Each chalet features separate feeding areas, scratch posts, and temperature control. Natural ventilation and insulation maintain optimal conditions year-round.
Health Monitoring
Trained staff administer medications and monitor health. We handle insulin injections and special diets. All guests require up-to-date vaccinations. Karen's animal first aid certification ensures prompt response to emergencies. Regular vet check-ups available through local practitioners.
Grooming Services
Daily brushing and coat maintenance included. We provide professional grooming tools and can accommodate specific owner preferences. Regular grooming prevents matting and promotes skin health. Owners may bring personal grooming items for familiar routines.
Special Dietary Needs
Custom feeding plans match home routines. We accommodate prescription diets and special requirements. Regular mealtimes for adults, with flexible schedules for kittens and seniors. Treats available with owner permission to enhance dining experiences.
Luxury Chalets
Thermostatically controlled chalets maintain ideal temperatures. Each unit includes elevated shelves, window perches, and natural light. Sneeze gaps prevent disease transmission. Outdoor views with bird feeders provide mental stimulation through wildlife observation.
