Our Milo kitten was only 4 months old and we have never left him overnight before but we had a week holiday booked so had to find a cattery for our boy. We went to have a look around Purton Cattery and were very impressed how Emma and Scott …
Was very nervous about leaving my kitten Arya for a few days, but Emma was lovely and so welcoming. She settled in very quickly and I got regular updates on how she was doing. Will definitely be using purton cattery in the future
Paddy, aged 17 yrs and as deaf as a post, was booked in for just 4 nights and she appears to have lived a life of luxury whilst in the loving care of Emma and her team. I was 'Whatsapped' a couple of photos with messages, keeping me informed of her status and it was very clear she was a happy moggy. Ensured my holiday was stress free! Collected and paid a very reasonable fee today. Thank You Emma. Paddy is now planning her next stay with you as you definitely feed her more tuna a day than me!! 😀😀
After trying a few catteries in the area, I knew as soon as I got there that this place was a cut above the rest. It's really well designed and spacious and each "penthouse" is cosy and clean. Emma the owner was so enthusiastic to meet our cat Kimchi. And she clearly wanted to make sure that Kimchi was as comfortable as could be to help her adapt quickly to a new environment. Each enclosure has been supplied with toys, blankets, and beds. Emma was communicative and helpful and clearly cares about the cats. This was in stark contrast to the others that we'd tried. In addition to the toys and beds in the enclosure, Emma also let Kimchi have a little stroll every day to stretch her legs. When we picked Kimchi up it was clear that she had enjoyed her 5 days as she was strutting around very happily. I was also impressed that Emma had been monitoring her behaviour throughout her stay and even sent us photos each day. It was all so professional, I couldn't recommend this place highly enough.
My three cats have just come home from their first visit to this wonderful Cattery. From start to finish, I knew they were in very safe hands. Emma sent regular photo’s and video’s, which was great. The cats were extremely well looked after and came home very happy. I have already booked for my next holiday. I would highly recommend Purton Cattery 🐈
Can’t fault Emma and all the team at Purton Cattery. My two boys were looked after to the highest of standards. They were settled during their stay and in fact were in no rush to leave their rooms when I came to pick them up. Will definitely book another kitty holiday in the future
Emma , Scott and staff at Purton Cattery were brilliant looking after our boy Frankie while we had a long break recently. We were sent regular updates to see how Frankie was getting on which was very reassuring. Unfortunately our flight was delayed and Frankie had to stay another night which Emma accomodated with no problem at all. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Purton Cattery where you know your special boys and girls will be looked after so well. In fact Frankie is already booked in for next May.
Our two cats seemed very happy and contented to be staying at the Purton Cattery . Nice touch to send photos of the cats whilst in their care. Would most certainly use them again as Emma and her staff came over as very caring people . Patricia Tonks
Confident spent 2 weeks with Emma from 23/6 - 8/7 2023 - whilst we were away celebrating our 25th Wedding anniversary. We were really nervous about using a cattery as she was a feral kitten who had adopted us but still has free reign to come and go as she pleased. Although she does like to sleep on my bed. So, we couldn’t bare the thought of her having to fend for herself whilst we were away so we decided on a cattery. Emma had helped us in the past with capturing feral cats / kittens in the area so her cattery was a natural choice. Confident adjusted so well for a first time cat in a cattery. We wouldn’t hesitate to use and recommend Emma/ Purton Cattery, she really does love the cats she cares for. We genuinely believe that confident enjoyed her holiday more than we did 🤣. The regular updates were an added and welcome bonus. Thank you Emma & Scott of Purton Cattery.
Leaving your loved babies or baby in care can be stressful and anxious choice. Finding a cattery that is a hub of love, interaction and owners who are so dedicated is so reassuring - Purton Cattery is a must to visit. Emma is 100% committed to all that take a holiday with her. She has a wealth of experience helping cats and other animals in need of care, shelter and a foster home. After years of helping cats get treatment, care and be rehomed she has focused on her love of cats to create Purton Cattery. We were so impressed at how the individual cat holiday homes are set up and that they have lots of room to move around, comfort items, heating, treat days and amazing view of what's going on in the huge garden. Our two settled in straight away, we got regular photos and videos and on our return there were no signs that the had been stressed. Looking for care for your cat then Google Purton Cattery and if possible make a visit. All the cats we said hello to appeared very happy holidaying with Emma.
