About Example Kennels & Cattery

Example Kennels & Cattery is a small, family-run boarding kennel and cattery where every guest is treated like one of our own. We keep numbers low so we get to know each pet properly. Dogs stay in heated, insulated suites with a raised bed and their own covered outdoor run, and they're out in our secure exercise paddock at least three times a day. Cats have a completely separate cattery building, well away from the dogs, with roomy pens, cosy beds, shelves to perch on and a sunny play room. Our day starts at 7am with breakfast and a run around, then playtime, rest, a lunchtime walk, more play in the afternoon and supper before settling down at 8pm. We give medication, cater for special diets and are happy to look after older pets. While you're away we send photo updates, so you can see your pet is happy and well looked after.
