The Cattery
About Us
​
Welcome to Shima Cat Hotel.
We are a family run cattery that offers luxury accommodation in a delightful tranquil environment. Our cattery is kept to a moderate size to ensure we can maintain our hands on individual care to our guests, making sure your cat feels like part of the family during their stay with us.
Accommodation
Our accommodation consists of multiple spaces for playing or cat napping. Our cattery suite's are light, spacious, warm, safe and hygienically clean. Each pen offers a cozy bed with a soft blanket, heating, a night light, multi-sensory toys, litter box and scratching post. (Air conditioning, cool bottles and mats during the Summer months)
You're welcome to bring anything your cat is familiar with from home and we encourage you to bring something with your scent on to help them settle in quickly. For our elderly guests, our family room has a low level shelf which is a suitable space for an elderly cat of twilight years.
We take a personalized approach and constantly monitor your cats progress and welfare to ensure your cat is enjoying their stay with us.​

During the day your cat will listen to soothing background Classical Music to add to the ambiance we offer in the cattery.​

Before leaving your cat in our care. We encourage you to come and view the cattery and inspect the facilities on offer and discuss your cats needs whilst in our care. I feel it is very important to look before you book at any cattery.

Cat Grooming Services
Cat Grooming
Shima Cat Hotel
Cat grooming is an allocated day with no dogs allowed. We always have two groomers for one cat and we only groom for one hour.

Your cats nails will be clipped.

We groom holistically in a peaceful, calming atmosphere working to the pace of your cat and it's tolerances.

Any knots will be clipped out, followed by a dry shampoo and conditioner.

We offer wet bath & blast for cats, but we will do a dryer and water test during their first appointment with us so they are comfortable.

Appointments & Enquiries For Cat Grooming

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I bring my cat's toy, bed or blanket?
Yes you can, and we highly recommend this as it's something familiar and comforting for your cat during their stay.
My cat is on medication. Can you administer this?
Yes we can. Either tablet form, liquid or I have a qualified vet nurse who can administer injections or insulin.
My cat will only eat a special food, can I bring this?
Yes it's recommended to keep your cat on the same diet as at home otherwise they will have an upset tummy, please ensure your name is on it and biscuits are in an airtight container. Bring enough for the duration of your cats stay.
Will my cat get attention?
Yes your cat will get attention as long as they require it. Some cats do not want to play or interact with a stranger, this can be quite stressful for the cat to force the situation, therefore we read each guest individually.
Do you take the cats for a lead walks?
No, we do not. When they are booked into the room, they stay in the room.
Anything else we should know before I arrive?
On arrival please ensure your cat is in a secure cat carrier, as you will need to walk past the dog grooming salon, your carrier will be left inside the room with your cat as they can use this as a hideaway and to feel safe. We also keep them in case of an evacuation. Remove the front and let your cat come out in their own time. Do not force it.

If your cat has not been in a cattery before, we recommend a trial stay of 3 days, we find it makes the process easier for when they come in for a week or two.
Some cats do not eat, drink or go to the bathroom for the first 48 hours. This is quite normal. They can also be defensive by hissing, spitting, biting or lashing out and scratching us. Then they settle down!
Our rooms are spacious with UPVC walls and safety flooring. We have an allocated large cat area (Maine coons etc.) or for multiple cats. We also offer our exercise wheel for energetic cats.
