Just because …
Just because…we all need a bit of Andulin purring in our life’s 🥰❤️😻😍
A photographer’s dream! Ragna and Muezza - two of the most stunning cats I’ve ever seen.
Now we all know that what matters whether it be a cat or a person, that it’s all about character, BUT, sometimes, just like admiring a beautiful scenic view or a painting l, you cannot but go wow. And wow you do say when you see these two! 🥰
Personality wise they are as equally as beautiful! I call them my two little monkeys! Always up to mischief when they’re awake, they are so playful but so loving too. They went home on Tuesday and I’m counting down to their next visit 😻😻❤️
Saying bye to the beautiful Sophie and Honey. It’s a hide responsibility looking after poorly cats but so incredibly rewarding. Are you surprised when I say I love them!? 😂😻😻❤️
A special purry thank you from my own cat Paddy to everyone for their kindness and especially to #simplycatsveterinaryclinic for saving him ❤️
*** warning I am speaking to my cat, therefore I am speaking with my cat voice 🙈😆
I’m so glad to let you all know he has had his feeding tube out and his stitches, the wounds are healing nicely and we are down to one medication.
Thank you all again for your love, support and patience while I’ve been looking after the patient 😻❤️ He is one lucky boy to have bounced back so amazingly after such a close call. Not bad going for 13 years young.
He’s such a loving, purry, happy cat and it’s so lovely to see him lying in the sun again. I really worried he wasn’t going to make it 🥲🥰
My post yesterday really was to just ask for some time out from the admin side of the cat hotel ATM. I have so many people ringing, emailing, messaging about bookings for 2023 and 2024 every day. It back fired though and now I have owners worrying anout bookings already made. So here goes…
My own amazing cat, Paddy, has been very seriously ill. It all started a week ago today.
He isn’t out of the woods and has had a major operation this week. We finally got to bring him home last night with a tube in his neck to feed him, sublingual medication for pain relief, 2 antibiotics, anti nausea tablets, pain relief injections…I’ve lost count!
His bowel had just stopped working, which is extremely dangerous. He was just filling up with air. We don’t know why it’s happened. We don’t know if his bowel will start again, but we are doing everything we can to get it to.
To potentially lose him after losing my parents has been so unbearable I didn’t even want to say he was so ill out loud. He (and Rosie) helped my Dad so much when he had his stroke. Paddy didn’t leave his side quite literally, until the moment Dad went into hospital for the last time.
They then comforted Mam when she was on her own, when I/we couldn’t be with her - and as those of you who follow the cat hotel know, they came to live with us when Mam died unexpectedly last August, so soon after Dad.
They have since been such a comfort to me, and despite my worries, have taken hotel life in their stride. So much so Paddy try’s to do the meets and greets with me, the hi’s and the byes! So quite a few of you have now met him 🥰❤️
This week has been hard to say the least.
However, he is home, we have hope and his vets are delighted with his progress. I cannot thank them enough. Sarah and Michelle especially. Michelle actually stayed up all night with Paddy she was so worried about him. The whole team have been a reassuring, loving support. I think they’ve all fallen for his cha
My beautiful guests are just here to say that due to personal circumstances I need to stop taking bookings for 2024, just for the moment ( If we are in middle of a booking I will honour that)
I will explain later and let you know when the diary is open again (2023 is fully booked 🙏)
I really need to just concentrate on my two cats Paddy and Rosie and the cats I’m caring for ATM (as well as my self and husband Mark💗)
Our beautiful Minxy Moo 💗One of our first guests and a regular since (we’ve been open 5 years in August) Minxy is just the funniest character who loves having pompoms thrown for her to catch.
It has been very warm, as we all know, so although she has a fan and a cooling mat she hasn’t played as much as usual this visit.
Thankfully she has purred and wanted stroking just as much. I couldn’t be happier to oblige! 😻🥰

Meet Sophie, sister to Honey and two absolutely perfect guests. They are both ladies of a mature age, but you wouldn’t know it! I need to eat what they’re on!!
They had 6 medications between them but they were so good. This was Sophie on her first day, after her first three tablets being popped down her throat. She just wanted a cuddle!!
I know I truly love all of my guests but they are just so sweet it’s off the sweet scale!! 😻😻❤️
Holly Prickle PLAYING!!! HP despite living with an adoring mother for the past 10 years, has remained virtually feral. Many of you know she has been holidaying at the Cat Hotel over the past few years 😻🥰
It really is the most amazing feeling to see her ‘forget‘ she’s supposed to be scary and hissy to cover up how frightened she is of humans. She was so engrossed, so happy…and thankfully it doesn’t seem to be a one off, as she’s played for a few days in a row now.
I usually only see her ears sticking out of the top of the tall cat tree! On her last holiday there was a little bit of progress and signs she might play but this time she’s done amazingly ❤️
This feels like a miracle! And this is one of the things that makes me most happy at the Cat Hotel.
Holly Prickle forgets she’s a semi (at a push!) feral and…PLAYS…and properly plays!!
To see her engrossed, happy and not fearful is priceless ❤️🥰😻
I just couldn’t not post this little video of one our current guests, Lunacorn. Just stunning😍😻
All cats are beautiful to me, you must allll know that by now!
*** my Rosie and Paddy are obviously thee most beautiful though, as they are mine!! 😁
Peggy loving life in the Cosy Suite 😻 She’s never been away from her owners before but she settled in immediately.
I absolutely love her…and her name!! 🥰
Holly Prickle (she’s rather feral, even 10 years on from her lovely owner rescuing, loving and spoiling her!🥰) leaves in around an hours time.
It has made me so happy to see her make some progress, after many visits of really not!
After her night of playing with the butterfly toy she retreated for a few days, but she was back to it last night and this was her last night too, right beside me. I always love having her to stay. Just as with humans, her quirks make her even more special ❤️😻
Progress!! Holly Prickle (our mainly feral cat guest) PLAYING. in. my. presence!!!!
I could have cried 🥰
HP has been many times and this is a first. Perhaps she can feel you all rooting for her 😻❤️
Bella goes home tomorrow so I couldn’t resist one more video. Trying to teach her that hands aren’t toys to chew on 🙈😻🥰🙈😆❤️
