Tierney visited us recently for his first ever stay in a cattery. We couldn’t resist his cute little face with its slightly grumpy visage and big blue eyes. He started off very shy and reserved but grew in confidence as time went on. In fact, much to his mother’s embarrassment, he ended up getting rather bossy with the other cats necessitating a change of housing arrangement whereby he did not have to share with any other feline. Tierney is a very doted upon cat is now very pleased to be home again being treated like a king. 😻😻👑👑

Asha’s two favourite poses - looking distinguished with paws crossed or stretched out completely on a mat. ❤️❤️ Either way, he is an extremely lovable fellow.

Today is National Tabby Cat Day. Here are some of our tabby boarding residents !
Happy Day to all the tabbies out there - the stripey ones, the mackerel ones, the silver tabbies and even the tabby/torties. Being a dominant gene, you can even see tabby stripes on some solid coated cats.

On World Veterinary Day, 27th April, we would like to give a very big thank you to all the hard working veterinarians at Elgar Road Veterinary Hospital who look after our boarding cats . They are always ready with advice and/or medical assistance when required, whatever the issue. The cattery staff greatly appreciate your knowledge and the way you always listen to our concerns no matter how small or obscure. 😻😻

Tofu is the prettiest little Devon Rex whose fur looks a lot like cotton wool balls. She has short whiskers which is typical of her breed and lots of energy. In fact, Mara had to give her a bit of a hug so she would be still enough for a photo 🥰🥰🤪🤪😻

A crowd gathers around the new grass pot!! Eating, chewing and the inevitable vomiting follows. 😻😻

Tom’s favourite activity when he stays at the cattery is to rip up boxes. He particularly loved the challenge of this box as it made from a very plastic-like cardboard. In fact, I doubted he would be able to chew it at all. Well, there’s nothing like proving the humans wrong! 😻😻

Bacon has some of the most majestic whiskers you’ll ever see 😻😻. He also has a delightful temperament with never a cross word (meow) or hiss to be said.

Happy Easter to all who celebrate!! Rubble, Caddy, Winnie, Bailey, Fox and Tom hope you are all having a great long weekend.

Lily is enjoying the sunshine on Good Friday morning. Is it too early to start eating Easter eggs yet ?

Teddy (black and white) gives us a very quick tongue out for TOT. His sister Yoarna (tortishell) wanted to join in too but she was so quick I missed the tongue!
Teddy is a loving and chatty boy who is a delight to care for. They are housed separately when boarding as Teddy has very specific dietary restrictions. He loves to visit Yoarna whenever he can though and when they meet up outside their enclosures they rub and sniff each other in greeting. ❤️❤️

Throwback to last weekend when I was trying to convince Roli to come in out of the heat. I’m sure all cat owners can agree that cats are a very stubborn critter and Roli is no exception. 🤣😻

And then there was one ……….
Bo Peep is our final remaining adoption kitten. ❤️
She is an extremely friendly tabby girl who would love a family to call her own. Bo Peep loves company and has a bold personality which would help her adjust to children and or other pets.
Please contact the Elgar Road Veterinary Hospital for details.

Both the lost pets we have recently posted about - Dusty the cat and Tigga the dog - are now home safely!

Pretty Ibu Abu jumps up on her back legs so she can get more pats. We refer to this move as a ‘wallaby’! ❤️❤️❤️

Happy Valentines Day to all our wonderful followers. If you are giving or receiving flowers today please keep clear of lilies as they can be severely toxic to our beloved cats. They don’t necessarily need to have eat or chewed them either, just rubbing against the stamen can deposit toxic pollen on their fur which is then infested as the cat grooms itself.
