Gorgeous little poppets 🥰

Let’s get the party poppers out 🥳
The road is now accessible from Ninemaidens and Penmarth. It’s still ‘technically’ closed for another week or so, so please ignore the road closed signs and come through anyway as it has been resurfaced.

The only diversion now is affecting people coming from Rame/Longdowns/Penryn direction. Thankfully this isn’t too long and only takes approx 5mins extra going through Carnkie and turning right after Halwin.

Availability update:

We are fully booked now until October.
October also has limited space so regular clients please book as early as possible as new clients are coming in daily due to the limited boarding space there is locally.
We are closing for a break from 16th November reopening 2nd December so there will be no closure during January 2025. Please note this is a full closure.

Any cancellations will be posted here if anyone wants to snap them up that cannot be filled by the waiting list.

"Hyperthyroidism" in cats is a common endocrine disorder, particularly in older cats. The signs and symptoms can include:

Weight Loss: Despite a normal or increased appetite, they can lose weight.
Increased Thirst and Urination: Cats might drink and urinate more frequently.
Increased Activity: Restlessness or excessive activity may be noticeable.
Vomiting and Diarrhoea: Gastrointestinal issues can occur.
Rapid Heart Rate: A higher than normal heart rate is common.
Poor Coat Condition: The fur might look unkempt or greasy.
Behavioral Changes: Increased irritability or aggression can be observed.
Panting: Some cats may pant, which is unusual for them.
If you notice any of these symptoms, it's important to consult a veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment options.

⛔️PLEASE READ⛔️
As alot of you know the Microchipping of cats came into law in June 2024.
Today the licensing officer confirmed that cats without a microchip cannot be boarded and this with become part of our boarding licence regulations once they have been updated some point this year by DEFRA.
I have a Halo Microchip reader on order so I can scan the number however it is the owners responsibility to make sure their pets are chipped in accordance to the law. Most chip numbers are stuck to your vaccine card if done at the vets.

Going forward we have a few months before it comes into Defra legislation so if your cat isn’t chipped please give your vets a call or alternatively I know a lovely mobile chip lady Tan’s Mobile Microchipping Service who can go out to your home to do this for you who is very reasonable and saves the stress of getting the cat to the vet.

There is no need to panic if you know your cat is chipped but you do not have the number to hand this is what the Halo is for 🙂

Whilst your thinking about chips it’s a good time to check your details are up to date 🙃

Pretty little kitties 🐾

Pretty sure Bruce has got a tad confused. This is not his house ( Even if he treats it like one and helps himself to the toy box and food bowls) He actually lives next door 😂

18/07/2024

Availability update:
We have very little available space from
now until Mid October. Mid-End of October is limited and Christmas I have one spot left so please book well ahead if you have anything planned.

Please remember if you enquire about availability I can't promise it'll still be there if you do not get back to me for days or weeks or longer. Boarding space is limited with only a handful of reputable establishments still operating so please bare this in mind.

Availability Update:

👉I have a squidge of space at the end of July and also due to a cancellation end of August over bank holiday into early Sept, that’s it other than some 3 day gaps here and there until October 🙈
So, if any regulars would like to snap them up before they go please let me know asap.
October is booking up pretty quickly too and Christmas only has a few slots left!

I am away at the tail end of September for two days to attend the National Pet Trade Show ( Not just for the free pens - honest 😉) and also the weekend of 9-11 October to celebrate Mum’s 60th but cover is in place.

I am hoping to have another 2-3 pens updated this week which will mean we are over half way to finishing our updates to the internal part of our cat pens. My next task after this is getting hold of a plastic moulding company to quote moulding white 5 sided boxes to replace our wall ones we have.

All very exciting!
None of this would be possible without our lovely customers returning to us year round so we can always be reinvesting & improving our kittycat accommodation. Paul keeps asking if I’ve finished my jobs to do but there always something new i think of so it just gets longer 😂

Have a great sunday everyone 😁
