About us
Long term animal lover Carly has enjoyed the company of many different animals including dogs, cats, rodents, goats and horses. Now I live with my two horses and four cats, Itchy, Scratchy. Knuckles and Not, who always entertain with their friendly antics. We only board cats, no dogs allowed meaning cats can enjoy a stress free stay. Cwtches for Cats is a family business and cats may be greeted by my parents, grandparents or son and Aunt Jane who helps to look after the cats.
Our aim for all cats staying with us
We expect to provide the same care to any cats staying with us that we would expect for our own - the very best!
- I live on site so can give the cats as much attention, care and cuddles they deserve while they are on holiday.
- A clean and hygenic Cattery.
- Only cats from the same household will be allowed to share accommodation.
- Keeping you up to date with pictures and news of how your cat is doing while you are away.

We will take the details of your vet and ask you to complete a consent form to allow us to seek treatment for your cat if this is required. If we are unable to use your vet for whatever reason we will use our own vet who is available 24 hours a day. You will receive a bill for any treatment directly.

We are able to give cats medication as long as we have advance notice of what this will entail and for complex cases we may need to discuss this with your vet to ensure we are able to provide the best car while in our cattery

NEW SERVICE
Sometimes it is not possible to bring your cat into the cattery. Perhaps your cat is not immunised or we may be full and unable to cater for your cats stay. Often people prefer for older or disabled cats to be cared for in their own home. For what ever reason, Jane is able to provide a cat sitting or visiting service in your own home. Jane already looks after the cattery one day a week and when Carly is away on holiday, she has always adopted older and disabled cats herself and is experienced in building relationships with shy and timid cats in particular.
Jane is fully insured through the cat sitting service and is available at an hourly rate in the Afan Valley and Maesteg. Visits further afield may incur more petrol/diesel costs. Contact us for details.
Terms and Conditions
Every care will be given to the cats boarded. If a cat requires veterinary attention we will contact your vet, or ours if yours is not available. The owners will be responsible for any veterinary costs
We reserve the right to rehome any cat who is not collected within 15 days and where there is no communication from the owners
All cats must be vaccinated and proof of these records shown at the cattery on arrival
Only cats from the same household will share the same accommodation
The data collected on our booking forms is required by the licensing officer and will be stored securely and confidentiality on a computer at the business.
