A: An up-to-date Vaccination Certificate or we can contact your Vet to obtain vaccination records. If you feed your cat Prescription Wet food then the owner must supply it. Please remember to bring along any medication that your cat may require.

This can be of great comfort to your cats and can help them settle in quickly when placed in their bed. Of course, you can always bring along their favorite toy and bed. We do however supply most things at the NDcattery for NO extra fee.

Like valued guests. They're all VIPs when they're here. They get full attention, and there is someone on site pretty much 24 hours a day.
Cats are kept separate to avoid fighting and passing on disease. All cats however will get plenty of exercise.
