Title: Boarding catteries in Kent
Post by: jezebel on December 13, 2010, 14:12:12 PM

Can anyone recommend a good boarding cattery in Kent (within easy reach of Sevenoaks)? The only one I've heard of is Nizels (which looks nice on their website but I'd rather have a personal recommendation). Their daily rate for two cats is £13 - not sure if this is pricey or not, it's a long time since I've used a cattery.

No rush, I'm just thinking about booking a holiday in February/March.

Is outskirts of Whitstable too far? - I know Sharn who owns Kopperkins cattery. She is actually a branch fosterer and has dedicated 2 of her pens to CP (doesn't charge us)

She doesn't belong to FAB as she decided it was too expensive for how much she makes.

I can vouch for how much she dotes on the cats. She is often out with them at midnight. I saw the way she was with a long-term pair (owner was in care) and it made my eyes a bit misty  :shy:

I have never actually used a cattery  :shy:

I am the manager of a cattery in Bexley Kent (about 20mins from Sevenoaks)
The cattery is owned by 2 vets and I've just done the FAB cattery managers course

PM if you are interested x

Thanks both.

I think Whitstable might be a bit far - just thinking of the girls, like most cats they get stressed in the car. It looks really nice on the website though.

Michelle, I will PM you soon - what's your cattery called?
