You and your family have been looking forward to your big beach vacation for a long time and everyone is busy packing up and getting ready to go! You are marking things off of your to-do list, the flights are booked, the hotel is reserved, the mail has been stopped, but there is one last very important item- what about your precious kitty cat? Your cat is a beloved member of your family, but unfortunately, a holiday by the sea is not in the cards for him. Some people say just leave him at home with plenty of extra food, but what if something goes wrong while he’s left there all alone? After all, he is just an animal, although you think of him as a little person, so what happens if there is a fire, or a storm knocks out the electric heating with no one is there to help him? Well, fortunately, there is a better way!
There is no doubt that cat boarding is the absolute best choice for the health, welfare, and happiness of your cat. Putting him in the capable hands of the experts by taking him to boarding for cats at Animal Tracks will ensure your precious furry friend will have almost as nice a vacation as you will! You can rest assured that the friendly and professional staff are all cat lovers themselves who will be eager to pamper and pet your feline family member for you while you are away!
Despite all that goodness, it’s still probably going to be a bit of a traumatic experience for you to look over your shoulder at him as you go out the door, maybe more so for you than for kitty cat! Keeping that in mind, there are some little things you can do to make it as comfortable as possible for him and for you!
Pack some little pieces of home to take with him! When your is cat boarding for the first time he will be in new and unfamiliar surroundings that can make him feel nervous and overwhelmed. Cats love familiarity, they are truly creatures of habit, so be sure to pack up the blanket or cushion he sleeps on and his favourite toys from home to help make him more at peace with the new surroundings, and his stay a lot more enjoyable and comfortable. The best thing? An item of your clothing that smells like you for him to cuddle with!
It’s never going to be easy, but you can feel better knowing your wonderful cat isn’t home alone and is safe and comfy in good hands!
