• I base my rates on the decades of experience I have with cats and their behaviors.  I can often spot problems that may come up and handle them accordingly. I have experience with feral/shy and friendly cats. My own cats have had cardiomyopathy, hyperthyroid, diabetes and inflammatory bowels conditions. I am used to providing special diets.

• Because of my experience I do book quickly, so please notify me soon as you can for a meet and greet and booking.  I am eager to meet your kitty and you too of course.  

   

  Payment is due before the first date of care, personal checks and cash are accepted.
