Ash Thomas Cattery

Ash Thomas Cattery We are a small family run purpose built cattery. Our priority is the care of the cats and to make sure their stay with us is relaxed and stress free.

Well established boarding cattery located in the village of Ash Thomas, near Tiverton in Devon. Situated in peaceful rural surroundings with purpose built accommodation. Owned and operated by the Rob and June Furmedge. June has a vast background in animal work, having 29 years experience in animal rescue. We are a small Cattery and therefore can provide personal individual care. Cats requiring spe

cial care and medication are very welcome. The Cattery is an older purpose built cattery offering indoor accommodation where each guest has a heated bed and is provided with a scratching pad.

Update:- We are totally booked up for Christmas.

We respectable ASK that all customers check their cats vaccination card before booking with us. Vaccinations / cards are not our responsibility.

We do not enjoy having to refuse customers because their cat is unvaccinated or proof of vaccination is not provided.

We as a cattery do our best to remind customers to bring their cards with them.

We only need to see the card once a year once a cat/s have been revaccinated.

Thank you
Rob and June

We are fully booked for double pens and only have one single pen left for Christmas.

Please be aware. ( our Holiday dates).

Normally the cattery does not close during the year except for a few bank holidays. This is to let all our customers know we have decided after nearly 10 years of owning the cattery we need to take a break.

This is well in advance NOTICE.

We have decided that from the 22nd of September -1st of October 2023 we are going to hit the road and visit Scotland. All cats booked in in September 2023 must leave the cattery by the 20th Sept 2023 to allow us time to clean all pens ready for intake on the 3rd of October.

There will be an emergency only policy during this time which will be decided by us during the evenings of our holiday as family members will be on the property during this time allowing them a break to.

Thank you for all your custom we just need to recharge our batteries.

Thank you once again.

We do not want to refuse any cat/s but we do redeem the right to refuse entry if your cat has its vaccination after the 2 weeks or on the day of entry. This is to safe guard your cat and other boarders.

If your cat is not vaccinated on entry to reception we will not be able to board your cat.

While we do understand you would like to pick your fur baby's up on the same day you are arriving home we do recommend you allow an extra day to travel.During our peak periods ( please see web site) we do have cats coming in and going out on the same day. I hope you understand we do try our best to accommodate all requests but this is not always possible. Thank you.

Helpful tips. Do not wash bath or let your cat out in the rain once you have applied flea treatment for a couple of days as it will wash off. The Flea treatment is absorbed through the skin and distributed around the body. Long haired cats need extra care when applying Flea treatment as the treatment needs to go on the skin not the hair or your treatment will be wasted.

Please Help to keep our Cattery FLEA FREE.

Use a reliable product to treat fleas. It will alarm a lot of people that only 5% and adult Fleas only live on our cats. Eggs, larvae and pupae live in our homes that is a whopping 95%. To keep your cat and home flea free you need to treat your cat all year round. If you suspect fleas in your home which there most likely will be you will have to treat your home with flea spray ask your vet for advice. Hoover every day for at least a couple of months. Lava don't like light so move away once hatched and crawl into floor board cracks under skirting boards so hoover well in corners hoover your sofas any where you think they may get. Wash cat's bed at 60c should remove most if not all of the eggs larvae and pupae that may be stuck to it. Please remember that fleas in your home will hatch during winter months to once the heating is turned on. Lastly if your cat has fleas they will more than likely have tapeworms so that will need treating to.
