Answer: Like so many other things, the best boarding catteries are often recommended by word of mouth. Or you might ask your vet there is a cattery he could recommend. You should approach the cattery owners or manager to make the necessary arrangements. Do this as soon as you have decided on your holiday dates because the best catteries are always fully booked during the most popular holiday weeks. And, like good hotels, good catteries ten to charge rather moor. A good cattery will insist that your cat is fully and recently vaccinated, to protect both itself and the other boarders, and will demand proof in the form of vaccination certificates. You may thus need time to arrange for a vaccination course to be completed. Vaccination is required against feline enteritis, and sometimes feline influenza as well.
Catteries very widely in quality and if you want to inform yourself about the type of establishment ask for an appointment to view the accommodation before making definite booking. A well-run cattery will have nothing to hide.
