**BOOKING ADVICE**

Due to the closure of several catteries in the area over the past year I have seen a tremendous increase in the amount of enquiries and booking requests recently.

As I only have the five units here I have made the decision to not take on any new clients for the time being. This is to hopefully preserve the availability that I do have for my existing customers.

That being said, I do already have some dates next year that are already fully booked. May and June in particular are very busy. So if you do have any dates in mind for 2026 please let me know as soon as possible.

Many Thanks to you all for your continued support and hopefully I'll see you and all of your fur babies soon.

Michelle is still missing!
Please check your sheds/garages/outbuildings in the areas mentioned in the post below. His owners are absolutely devastated and desperately want him home. Many Thanks

Yesterday afternoon I was out with Jordan JL in search of beautiful Michelle. We covered areas close to the house, spoke with neighbours and people passing through to get the word out there. Two traps are set as Michelle will come out when it’s dark and quiet if spooked. Jordan JL is doing amazing with all his search efforts and has taken on experienced advice from the local cat groups so thank you for sharing the tips. Please please share and check your outer buildings within -

AROUND NP4 - PENYGARN / TRIVETHIN / CHARLESVILLIE
- OLD PENYGARN ROAD/ HOSPITAL ROAD/ CHURCH LANE/ MILL ROAD / FIELDS AROUND AREA OFF LEIGH ROAD ALSO!!

COULD BE ARROUND THE BIKE TRACK/ TRAINING FIELDS OR PARKS NEAR RIVERSIDE/

PLEASE KEEP AN EYE OUT. HE MAY NEED HIS MEDICATION SHORTLY TOO!!

Any sightings please contact immediately mobile numbers on the photo attached. Any help in searching even if it’s 30 mins would be very much appreciated. Thank you x

SPRING CHECKLIST

Looking forward to seeing many of you over the coming months!

As the Easter holidays kicks of the crazy busy season of the year I thought I'd make a little check list as a refresher for customers:

1. Vaccinations
Please check the due dates of your pets vaccinations and make sure that they are booked in for boosters if necessary in plenty of time before their stay.

2. Opening times
Please double check your travel plans / flight times to ensure that you have booked the correct dates needed for their stay. Please take into account my opening hours and pick up and drop off times. I am unable to accept pick ups and drop offs before 9:30am or after 6pm.

3. Medicine and medical conditions
Please let me know in advance if your pet has a new medical condition or is on any new medication before their stay.

4. Availability
There is very limited availability from now until September. Only existing customers will be able to be added to the cancellation list for now until September. If you have any further dates for 2025 please let me know ASAP plus the 2026 diary is open for those of you who like to be organised. You can never book too early!

Hopefully the sunshine is here to stay for a while. The three ladies that I have staying at the moment are certainly enjoying it today.

Many Thanks
Becky xx

*Price Increase from 1st March*

As everyone knows, the cost of everything has increased significantly since the last price increase nearly two and a half years ago, including the running costs of the cattery.
I've held off doing this for as long as possible but unfortunately I will be putting my prices up £1 per cat per day from 1st March 2025.

The new fees from 1st March 2025 are:

Single cat £13 per day
2 cats sharing £20 per day

There will still be discounts for other combinations, such as 3/4 cats using 2 units and the long stay discount for stays of over 21 days will still be available.

Many Thanks to you all for your continued support of my little business. It's a pleasure to see so many regulars in the diary for this year. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Many Thanks
Becky
