Lucky Cat - fie stars - fantastic- would come again!
Lucky Cat was fantastic. I housed my Melon there for 10 days, at late notice, because my kitten became very unwell and they needed to be separated. I contacted Lucky Cat and (luckily) they had room for him.
Anjalee, the owner, was very kind and welcoming. She had everything ready for Melon’s arrival and during his stay, she spent lots of time interacting and playing with him. He became comfortable with her and started asking for affection. She allowed him to explore (when there were no other cats there), which he enjoyed as he likes to know and see everything. She put a lot of effort into ensuring he was stimulated, and to be honest, I don’t think he wanted to come home!
The space itself was fantastic. It was very clean and I had no concerns about hygiene/cleanliness/the environment he was in. The surroundings were very quiet and peaceful, and Melly was able to look out the window at the birds, which he likes and can’t do at home as birds are impossible to see where I live.
He had his own two-room suite - a bedroom and a play area. It was quite large and well equipped with a bed, a cat tree, two platforms, two stair towers, toys, and then his food and water bowls, which was separate from his litter. Although I took toys, which she used to play with him, he would have been fine had I not taken any.
She kept me updated twice daily, with lots of photos and videos, and told me about his appetite, and adjusted how much food she gave him according to what he ate.
She was also extremely kind and kept him on for an extra week after my initial booking expired, when it transpired that he and my Rafiki would need to be separated for longer, due to the seriousness of Fiki’s condition. She told me she’d keep Melly as long as he needed to stay, and was attuned to the fact that moving him around would be stressful and confusing for him.
Overall, I have a very happy cat who had a positive experience. I have no hesitation in leaving both of my cats there in the future and recommending it to others.
