Dog and Cat Boarding & Grooming for Cumming - North Fulton - Canton : 678-455-9199
It is important to remember that cats do       not usually travel well. They usually do not enjoy it, nor do they adapt       well to travel. Many people who try to take their kitty along with them       on their vacation end up spending most of their time searching for their       escaped pet.

Leaving your cat with friends can be       just as unsatisfactory. Cats must go through an adjustment period in a       new environment and this means they will not look upon your friend’s       house as “home” for quite awhile. Therefore, your cat may try       to escape from the strange house at every opportunity or hide as a fear       reaction. Most cat owners realize that it is not fair to impose this kind       of responsibility on their friends, nor is it a safe arrangement for       their pets.

Obviously, the most satisfactory way of       arranging for such care is to entrust your cat to a qualified kennel,       where the security arrangements are adequate to insure that your cat will       not escape, and where the personnel are trained in observing and handling       the problems which may arise in your absence.

Cats enjoy the “protected”       feeling they get from being placed in a condo unit while being boarded.       Your cat will probably want to sit in the corner of his unit and stare,       until he feels comfortable in the new environment. Human contact does not       necessarily accelerate this period of acclimatizing. It has to take place       at the cat’s own speed. A common reaction of cat owners to the idea of       boarding is “kitty loves to run around.” Perhaps he does at       home, but while he is in unfamiliar surroundings, his condo gives him a       feeling of safety. Cats exercise isometrically. This means that when a       cat has enough room to stretch, he can exercise every muscle in his body.       When your cat is in strange surroundings, around strange cats, he will       prefer safety to space.
