Happy Caturday everybody. We hope you are all enjoying this lovely warm ‘winter’ weather. Things are going along nicely here but to make sure we keep things tip top, we have decided to close the Cattery during part of August. This will enable us to carry out a deep clean and make sure everything is as we want it to be for your cats stay.
We will be closed from the 1st August and will reopen on Monday 22nd August. We hope that this doesn’t impact on any travel plans and look forward to seeing you again soon.

With the Cattery finally full to bursting, it has been a very busy day here but we would just like to end it by wishing all our friends and extended family a peaceful end to the day and the hope of a more settled year to come with health and happiness for us all. We will be posting some pictures of our Christmas guests in the weeks to come. Stay safe and thank you to everyone for all your support throughout yet another tough year.

So, today is ginger cat appreciation day. I know you all know my lovely Ron but with 9 new family members coming for the week next week, I can’t wait to see if any of them are gingers too - it’s going to be a busy one 😻

Thank you Ann Snell for your very kind review. It was certainly my pleasure to have your lovely Lily come to stay. At some 15 years plus, it’s fair to say she is our oldest guest so far and as such, set in her ways. I love her routine of checking out each and every cupboard, each and every day, sitting patiently waiting for me to open them for her. I miss our daily ‘knitting/cuddle sessions’ and can’t wait to welcome her back. You are truly a lovely gentle lady Lily 😻

It’s been a while since we posted but glad to say we have been busy with lots of comings and goings from lots of members of the ‘family’. However, we were delighted to welcome a new addition too, please meet Kitty. A lovely little girl but a little hard to take a picture of! It was a delight to have you stay Kitty, welcome to the family and we hope to see you again soon 😻

As if we need a special day to hug our cats 😻 but a good excuse for an extra one 😺 Have a lovely weekend everyone.

Go on! Give them an extra hug.
Happy Hug Your Cat Day... 🤗🐱

Please welcome the latest addition to The Cheshire Cattery family, this is Niffler (he truly is a Fantastic Beast - movie reference!) and he recently came to stay for the week. I don’t think I have ever seen such a perfect moustache Niffler, very dapper. Once he had settled in he was a perfect guest and was happy to be a part of the family. I hope we will see you again soon Niffler, missing you already 😻

This lovely boy is Finn. He is a 7 month old Maine C**n and he came to stay for the weekend. It was his first time away from home and, although a little unsure at his new surroundings at first, he soon settled in. As our latest and youngest ‘visiting’ family member it was a good excuse to get all the toys out. He is a very quick boy and you wouldn’t want to be a mouse or a gecko! We can’t wait to see how much you have grown the next time you come to stay Finn. 😻

Please meet Luna, she is a little girl who has already travelled a lot and then came to stay with us for a couple of weeks. She is so sweet and gentle it was lovely to have her stay and join our growing family of ‘stayers’. Have a lazy weekend Luna (and family) 😻

We would like to introduce you to two lovely boys who first came to stay for a couple of weeks in January and they returned for another stay just recently. Please meet Ollie and Simba, they are very good guests and no trouble at all. Ollie was a bit unsure on his first visit in January but was a cat out of the box this last time and quickly made himself at home again. Simba is just a relaxed boy who loves a head scratch. Welcome to the family and we hope to see you both again soon 😻

How are you and your kitties coping in this heat? This is Ginny enjoying the breeze from the fan tonight, she looks very comfortable 😻

Some of you may have been worried that Emily spent Christmas with us on her own. I am happy to say that was not the case as we had the lovely Olly back with us for quite an extended holiday of her own. As a frequent visitor (I know her well) she is given some freedom and, as her stay was a long one, joined me on occasion to help in the kitchen and also extend her legs with the odd zoomy! It was so lovely to have Christmas cuddles Olly, we miss you 😻

You know what you have to do if you have a ginger 😘

It's Kiss A Ginger Day!!! Time to squish those ginger kitties...😄 🧡

Christmas last year was a strange one for many of us but ours, at The Cheshire Cattery, was made all the easier by welcoming this lovely lady Emily into our ‘visiting family’ for the first time. She certainly had a lot of tall tales to tell us during her stay and we are really missing our chats. Hope to see you again soon Emily.
