About us
Welcome to Shima Cat Hotel.
We are a family run cattery, offering 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.
​
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 are welcome to bring anything your cat is familiar with from home and
we encourage you to bring something with your scent on to help him/her
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.
Your cat will receive human interaction including cuddles and playtime.
However we will be guided by our guest!
​
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.
