Our
cattery has been designed and professionally manufactured by Welland Timber Ltd
to meet with Feline Advisory Bureau standards. We are
fully licensed and inspected by Babergh Bourgh Council, under the Animal
Boarding
Establishment Act 1963.
I am fully
trained with the Feline Advisory Bureau. As cat
lovers ourselves we appreciate that no two cats are alike and individual care
will be given, whilst staying with us. All cats entrusted into our care
will have as much homely comforts as
possible, and individual attention they deserve. Including personal playtime
and grooming which is all part of the service along with
huge amounts of cuddles and fuss.
Our aim is
to provide excellent individual care and accommodation for your cat. Every
effort is made to make your cat's stay as enjoyable as possible. A stress free
holiday for you and your cat. You are most welcome to bring along your own cat
bed, toys, grooming aids....all the things that will make your cat soon feel at
home.
At
Jasspurr Cattery we understand it is hard to part with your beloved cat, even
for a few days, and encourage you to come along and meet us, under no
obligations. If you have any special requests, worries or questions at
all, please do not hesitate to contact us. So we can put your mind at rest .All
units open on to a safety corridor/area just in case "Houdini" of the cat
world decides to come for a holiday!
All likes
and dislikes are taken into account, based on information provided by the owner.
The cattery is situated within our garden and is in consent view.
A sensor
security beam will let us know if unwanted visitors are about out of hours. All our
cat chalets are fully insulated with thermostatically controlled tubular
heating, with glazed window and bed area. Each chalet has it's own personal
locker to store personal bedding, toys, brushes in, so that everything your cat
comes to stay with, goes home and does not get mislaid. The chalet leads
into the individual covered run areas, there are full height clear sneeze
barriers. Each area has it's own Catplay Station scratching frame for that all
important nail sharpening and doubles up as a look out post. Breath taking
views over our beautiful natural pond with overhanging willow tree, and abundant
of wildlife in and out of the pond. Wild birds hop in and out the bushes and
reeds, with the koi carp and goldfish keep an eye out for the next feed. Not
forgetting our resident ducks, doves and poultry, who are more then happy to
entertain our feline guests. Your cat will be able to enjoy the fresh air,
listen to piped music, and watch the world go by...We have
single chalets and a family unit which is suitable for up to four cats ( from
the same household), along with an isolation facilities if it should be
required. As
and when seasonable weather permits all our guests will have access to
natural grown wheat grass.
Some
cat owners make the mistake of preventing their cat from eating grass. There
are various reasons for this, one being that they think it makes their cat
ill or upsets their stomach. This is an incorrect assumption and in fact the
eating of grass followed by regurgitation is a perfectly natural behaviour
for all cats.
Cats do not possess the ability to separate meat from fur bones or feathers
before eating like we do so they have to eat the digestible parts along with
the indigestible parts. When the cat has finished digesting what he can the
rest has to be removed from the system. To try and pass this through the
digestive tract could cause obstruction and severe illness so this is where
grass eating comes in.
The habit of eating grass triggers the natural process of regurgitation of
indigestible foods including its own fur balls which would otherwise
obstruct the system. This can appear to us humans as if the cat is being
violently ill but this is not the case and in fact is very beneficial
We re-cycle our
guests !!!!!
After daily
grooming all the unwanted fur is bagged up and hung out for the wild birds
to help themselves, to line their nests....
