We have used the Cat Hotel many times, and they take wonderful care of our two cats. They dont mind us calling to check in and give great updates. They are extremely on top of their care. Would recommend!

Great place. Our 2 year old kitty stayed there over Thanksgiving. She is very afraid of new people. We expected her to hide when she got home. But was just fine. Obviously they took good care of her! This is a cat only facility, which is purrrfect for nervous cats.
