Music is played morning and evening for that homely feel with a quiet afternoon nap time in-between, as that's what cats like to do best !
Bird and sheep watching is on offer from countryside & farm view windows, as well as soaking up the rays on the outdoor balconies !
Please note if your cat is on a vet prescribed diet we recommend you bring it with you.
A free Blackburn cattery play ball is given to all guests and freshly cleaned blankets can be provided. However we recommend that for a more homely touch and for hygiene reasons that owners bring guests own beds, scratching posts, favourite teddies etc.
Being a small cattery we get to know our guests very well and treat them all as individuals. We understand that cat's personalities are very different, for example, some like extra cuddles whereas others only like their own space.
