Star Boarding Kennels is a family run business established in 1977. The kennels are licenced for 62 dogs and 94 cats and are set in approximately one acre of land. All employees are chosen for the commitment and interest in the animals. It can pull at the heart strings to leave your beloved pet at a kennel while you are away from home, but rest assured Star Boarding Kennels provide a wonderful loving environment for your cat.

Boarding Kennels has a luxury cat kennel that opened in 2008 and has proved extremely popular. The cat kennel consists of 20 walk in units which have been constructed by Pedigree Pens. Each unit is furnished with a bed, a chair for your cat to lounge on and an activity stand/scratch post. Drinking fountains are also available on request. The cat kennels have everything your cat needs but you are welcome to bring bedding and toys from home to help your cat settle in. Make sure anything you bring is washed at 40 degrees and tumble dried.

When bringing your cat to the cat kennel list the possessions you are bringing along with any dietary requirements. It is also important to tell the kennel about and ongoing conditions your cat may have and bring their medication with you. Make sure you treat your cat with a veterinary flea treatment prior to boarding. If this is due during the period of the board then Star Boarding Kennels will be happy to administer it on the due date. Cats must be vaccinated against flu and enteritis and must also wear a collar with an identity tag. An up to date vaccination certificate must be shown at the kennel upon arrival.

Cats can be trained to perform basic exercises, such as sit or how to use the cat flap, as well as more complex exercises such as giving a paw, retrieving objects or sitting in the meer cat position. For the majority of car owners training may be a more important route towards grooming their cat, examining him or her to check teeth, coat and claws, or simply to call them in at night. Training cats can be a time-consuming and delicate process and whatever your goal it will need to be done at the cat’s own pace.
