Caring for Senior or Special-Needs Cats in Boarding
As our beloved cats age, or if they have unique health needs, planning a holiday can feel a little daunting. At Purr-Central, we understand how important it is to know your senior or special-needs cat will be safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. That’s why we’ve designed our facilities and services to give extra attention and support to cats who need it most.
🛏️ Comfort First
Older cats often appreciate gentle access to their favourite spots. At Purr-Central, we provide steps and ramps so they can still enjoy elevated spaces without the strain of jumping. For those who prefer warmth and coziness, we also have heat pads available to keep joints comfortable and to mimic the snug feeling of home.
💊 Medication Support
Many senior and special-needs cats are on daily medication, and we know consistency is vital for their health. Our experienced team is able to administer medication as required - just chat with reception about your cat’s specific needs and associated costs before their stay. You’ll have peace of mind knowing their routine will continue without disruption.
🏡 Spaces That Suit Their Needs
Some cats prefer or require lower-level spaces, especially if mobility is limited. Our original penthouses, The Windsor and The Regency, are designed to provide a larger, more spacious environment with everything at ground level - perfect for cats who benefit from avoiding stairs or higher perches.
☀️ Natural Light and Fresh Air
Every suite at Purr-Central is designed with wellbeing in mind. All of our rooms include window seats for sunbathing, giving cats the chance to soak up natural warmth and enjoy watching the world outside. Each suite also features either a private garden terrace or a Juliet balcony, so even less mobile cats can still enjoy the stimulation of fresh air and gentle outdoor sights.
🤗 Personalised Care and Attention
Every cat is unique, and senior or special-needs cats often require just a little more time and care. Because we live on-site and spend each day with our guests, our team ensures these cats get individual attention, whether that’s extra cuddles, gentle play, or simply the reassurance of a calm presence.
🌟 The Purr-Central Promise
Boarding a senior or special-needs cat doesn’t have to be stressful. With our thoughtful facilities, natural-light filled suites, and dedicated care, your cat can enjoy a holiday as much as you do. At Purr-Central, we make sure every guest, no matter their age or needs, feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
