Consider Before Booking Your Cat at The Cheshire Inn
Experience the Best of Care at Cheshire Inn
While The Cheshire Inn believes all kitties deserve high quality care and would love to be able to offer it to all, not all cats will do well in a boarding situation.
There are traits that make a kitty a good candidate for boarding or if they should receive care in the comfort of their own home or stay with someone they are comfortable with or even a medical board at a vet. Below is not conclusive but can be a useful guide if you are still deciding what type of care to seek for your cat.
Your cat may be a good candidate for boarding if they:
- Are well socialized and are curious about, enjoy or at least tolerate the company of other cats in their space.
- Are laid back temperament around people and other pets.
- Are curious about new places and transition well from one to the other.
- Have boarded before previously and had a good experience.
Your cat will NOT be a good candidate for boarding if they:
- Are mostly outdoor cats, are feral, formerly feral or unsocialized.
- Do not tolerate the presence of other cats nearby.
- Cannot be picked up or otherwise be handled or have severe crate stress.
- Have ongoing acute or chronic medical issues or injuries
- Have severe food allergies and frequent loose stool
- Are elderly and in fragile health
- Have bitten a human or another animal
- Have aggressive tendencies
- Have issues with using a litter box or spray
- Have not tolerated boarding in the past
