Cat Boarding

Let Your Cat Stay in a Comfortable, Specialized Environment

Our Cat Boarding Services

Personalized “Apartments” for Your Cat

  • Private and Spacious Rooms: Each cat is provided with a private room, affectionately referred to as an “apartment” by many of our clients. These spaces are human-sized to allow for exploration, relaxation, and play.
  • Comfort and Safety: Our boarding options are crafted to be both relaxing and safe, ensuring your cat feels at home during their stay.
  • Active Air Cleaning: The iWave produces positive and negative ions that actively clean the air, effectively reducing germs keeping cats healthy.
  • Hospital-Grade Flooring: We use high-quality, hospital-grade flooring that is not only durable but also easy to clean, ensuring a hygienic environment for your cat.

Cats in the City Cares

Cats in the City is Better Care for Cats

At Cats in the City our top priority is the health of the cats in our care. We track and record all food and water consumed, and all liquid and solid waste eliminated.  We measure hydration levels, monitor weight when needed, and we test blood sugar levels when appropriate.  In real time this data allows us to respond, adapt, and meet the complex physical and emotional needs of cats boarding with us.

OUR PLEDGE TO YOU AND YOUR CAT:

  • Your cat will get playtime and attention from our cat-loving team.
  • Animal technician and animal behaviorist on staff.
  • We ensure a flea-free environment.
  • Our home-style facilities are super clean and are climate-controlled (central air conditioning in the summer / heating in the winter).
  • We will watch your kitty for any signs of potential health problems, and will respond appropriately if a situation presents.
  • HEPA filtration and UV Light Air Exchange Systems to ensure air quality.
  • Veterinarian on-call 365 days-a-year
 
We’re also skilled at taking care of pets with special needs, including older animals with low mobility. We commonly administer insulin, oral medications, injections, and Sub-Q fluids.

What Makes Us Stand Out?

Exceptional Comfort and Cleanliness at Cats in the City

At Cats in the City, we prioritize your cat’s well-being by maintaining an environment that is not only clean and comfortable but also health-promoting. Our commitment to superior air quality and temperature control ensures that your feline friend enjoys their stay to the fullest.  Here’s how we achieve this:

Clean and Comfortable Rooms

Our cat hotels are designed with your pet’s comfort in mind. Each room features:

  • Hospital-Grade Flooring: We use high-quality, hospital-grade flooring that is not only durable but also easy to clean, ensuring a hygienic environment for your cat.
  • Ventilated with Fresh Air: Proper ventilation is crucial for maintaining air quality. Our rooms are equipped with systems that provide a continuous flow of clean, fresh air.
  • Central Heating and Cooling: We maintain a consistent, comfortable temperature year-round with central heating and cooling systems, ensuring that your cat feels at home regardless of the weather outside.

Advanced Air Quality Management

To further enhance the air quality in our cat hotels, we use the iWave Air Purifier. This innovative system provides several benefits:

  • Active Air Cleaning: The iWave produces positive and negative ions that actively clean the air, effectively reducing germs keeping cats healthy.
  • Eliminating Harmful Agents: It kills mold, bacteria, and viruses, significantly improving the overall healthiness of the environment.
  • Allergen and Smoke Reduction: The iWave helps reduce allergens and smoke, making the air safer and more comfortable for sensitive cats.
