We feed Purina Proplan but as most cats don't like change in diet we suggest that you supply your own biscuits if they're not on Purina, we will supply with a morning raw feed plus a taster of raw chicken necks.
​
Please supply your cat with a familiar smelling blanket and some of their own toys as this helps them to settle.
An up-to-date vaccine record (within the last 2 years) is important to keep all our feline friends safe from disease. We will ask for this when we accept your booking.

​
At Glitterpaws we offer a variety of enclosures to ensure the perfect boarding experience. One option is "The Holiday Suite" in "The Tiny House," (top left) which provides a spacious indoor area complemented by a small outdoor roofed enclosure. This unique setup allows your cat to enjoy fresh air and entertainment gazing out onto the paddock where a few cattle graze and across to distant views of the chicken run. While this enclosure offers views into other enclosures, the cats are separated enough to ensure they don’t cause each other stress.
​​
Glitterpaws also offers enclosures in "The Barn," (bottom left) which provide a cozy and comfortable environment for cats with different needs. Each 1.5mX3m enclosure features a fully insulated 50cm x 50cm sleeping box equipped with a heat pad to keep your cat warm and comfortable. The enclosure includes a large wide shelf and high boardwalk giving your cat plenty of space to explore and relax. All enclosures are fully covered and protected from prevailing winds. These enclosures also offer views of the chickens and paddock. More closely located to other cats, these enclosures are ideal for cats staying for longer periods, providing a sense of community while still maintaining enough personal space for comfort and relaxation.
