This is the gorgeous Rosy not in her house and not next to her bed 😆 She coveted Juno's bed (it's a tv) and spent a fair amount of her time in Juno's house usually in Juno's bed. We answered her prayers and swapped the beds (thanks Juno)

Our Story

When The Cats Away Cattery was established by passionate cat lovers and run by Christine and John Dunn. The cattery is well designed with modern accommodation. It offers comfort and stimulation for guests. Purpose built, we have individual runs, sleeping units and a large playroom.

Set in lovely countryside, there is an outlook onto running water from a natural spring and lots of native trees which attract an array of native birds.

Cosy and warm in winter, cool in summer.
