When selecting a boarding facility for your cat, it’s important to visit and speak with the staff. Focus on questions that address your cat’s unique needs and preferences:

Are there separate, quiet areas for cats, away from dogs?

What kind of individual attention or playtime do cats receive?

What are the litter box cleaning protocols?

Can I bring my cat’s specific food, treats, or comfort items like a favorite blanket?

What safety features are in place to prevent escapes or interactions with other cats?

Don’t hesitate to voice any concerns you have. A good facility will appreciate your thoroughness and commitment to your cat’s comfort.

Staff members experienced with felines are skilled at recognizing subtle signs of stress or illness, which cats often hide. They will contact a veterinarian if they observe any potential health problems.
