Step-by-step tips for packing food, familiar bedding, vet records, and comforting scent items for multi-week cat stays.
When planning long vacations, home renovations, or work travel, extended cat boarding keeps your cat safe and nourished.
Pack their exact current diet to avoid sudden gastrointestinal upset. Bring unwashed t-shirts carrying your scent to place inside their sleeping box.
Provide updated vaccination records including FVRCP and Rabies at least two weeks prior to arrival.
