Cattery & Cat Boarding
Going on holiday soon? Blackburn Animal Hospital has cat boarding facilities!
An ideal boarding facility for your pet has a relaxed, calm atmosphere, created by a design that minimises stress and allows maintenance of a high standard of hygiene. Our cat boarding facilities have recently been renovated and enriched to ensure your furry family members stay stress-free and enjoy their stay!
Our newly refurbished and affordable cattery available in the Eastern suburbs
Blackburn Animal Hospital has a designated area for cat boarding. The skilled and experienced staff looking after your kitten or cat at Blackburn Animal Hospital throughout their stay are experienced veterinarians and caring veterinary nurses. We have the skills and ability to detect any abnormalities or illnesses at the earliest possible time and are trained in animal handling.
How we make your cat comfortable
The team at Blackburn Animal Hospital focus on ensuring your cat is in a stress-free environment and is provided with toys, bedding, Feliway® Diffusers (a pheromone which is a synthetic copy of the familiarisation facial pheromone that cats use to mark objects in their environment) running to decrease stress in cats as well as wet and dry food, litter trays and litter. We offer premium Hill's diets with 3 different favours and 3 different textures of wet food; we are confident we will please your cats' appetite, although they are fussy eaters!
Each cage is provided with three levels for them to jump around, and we can also open a small door between the cages so that your cats can play together while staying individually in a spacious cage. Each room has a window for natural light and views; our cattery is climate controlled for comfort. Our veterinary team members frequently visit your cats for play and cuddles, so your furry friends enjoy their stay with us.
You will need to inform us of any health problems your pet may have had or is prone to. If medication is to be administered, you should let us know at the time of booking. Please write down the dose, frequency and name of the medication. If on long term medication, please ensure you bring along extra just in case.
