FAQs
How do I get updates on how my cat is settling in while we are away?
We pride ourselves on a personal service and aim to ensure your cat is settled and enjoying the stay. We update our Facebook page most days to keep everyone updated with what’s happening at ‘Barncre Cattery’.
What happens if my cat is taken ill?
We always take contact details of your cat’s vet at time of booking. In the event of illness we would contact you first to keep you updated. Our local vet is on hand 24 hours a day in case of any emergency. Our vet can consult your own vet if any additional information is required.
What if I have a nervous cat?
Not a problem, we pride ourselves at Barnacre for our patience, care and expertise in making all our guests feel relaxed, special and cared for. Even the most nervous cat will settle in no time at all. Plus a little tasty treat and cuddles will have them relaxing in no time at all.
Do we need to bring toys and bedding?
No, all bedding and toys are supplied, however if you wish to bring your own items to help your cat settle in that is fine.
