ABOUT US

Welcome to Mortram’s Moggies home cat care and pet sitting services. My name is Zoe Mortram and as a pet owner myself, I understand that our furry companions prefer to be within their own environment, which is usually in their own home. Mortram’s Moggies wants you and your moggie to be happy so I have created a service that ensures a positive experience. 

ZOE MORTRAM – OWNER

I have over 15 years of Veterinary Nurse training and experience. I can administer oral medications where required and also cater for animals with specific medical conditions such as diabetes requiring more intensive monitoring and care.  This ensures that you have peace of mind whilst I am caring for your beloved family member from a highly trained experienced background as if they were my own!  Both you and your pet are guaranteed the highest level of care when using my service.

HAYLEY MORTRAM – SISTER

Hayley a huge animal lover like myself, who has always had a great interest and fondness for animals of all shapes and sizes. She has grown up with hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, cats and dogs. In her spare time she is extremely happy to help Mortram’s Moggies and particularly enjoys housesitting. She also likes to go hiking to experience scenic views on her travels.

IMOGEN GOODING – REGISTERED VETERINARY NURSE

Imogen and I have worked together for the past 15 years, She is a highly qualified Veterinary Nurse with over 30 years experience which ensures my clients a continuous high level of care should I not be able to visit. She shares her home with Ginny the amazing Labrador and two cats, Mark and Leah. Imogen is also an assistant Scout leader at her local church. In her spare time, Imogen enjoys catching up with friends and enjoys long walks with Ginny.

CAROLINE FOSSEY – VOLUNTEER AT THE CELIA HAMMOND TRUST

There have always been cats in Caroline’s life and after 16 years she took voluntary redundancy from her job on a national newspaper and started working as a volunteer at the Celia Hammond Trust in New Cross where she cleans cages, feeds and plays with nervous/timid cats. She finds it very rewarding, especially when the cats start to relax and become more friendlier as this helps them with finding a home. She has also adopted two cats from the rescue centre and has looked after neighbour’s cats whilst they have been away, she was responsible for administering tablets as the cat’s both had medical conditions which required daily medication and monitoring.

OUR SERVICES

DAILY CHECK-IN

Are you going on holiday? Do you hate the idea of sending your beloved puss to a cattery? Or maybe they require a daily medication due to a chronic health problem…

As Veterinary nurses, we specialise in pets with health problems which means we can monitor for any issues, administer injections/medications and react a lot faster to change than an untrained person.

Cats are very territorial animals who are very attached to their own home environment, this way your cat gets to relax in their own home without the stress of going into a cattery. Which guarantees a worry free holiday for you and your cat.

HOUSE SITTING

If you are wanting a reliable honest and trustworthy person to take care of your property as well as your pet whilst you are away then a live-in pet sitter is a great choice.

This service is ideal if you have a elderly or sick pet, an animal that requires medication or a multi pet household.

A live-in pet sitter is great for those who simply want the added security of someone staying in their own home whilst they’re away. So you can enjoy your holiday knowing your pet and property are in safe hands.

GENERAL PET CARE

We can make sure your pet stays up to date with their monthly flea and worming treatments whilst you are away. We are more than happy to apply the flea product provided by your Veterinary surgeon so you can go away knowing their preventative treatments are being kept up to date which ensures a worry free trip.

Worming our pets can be very challenging which often leads to our beloved pet becoming stressed or anxious which is something we would like to avoid before setting off into the sunset. Luckily we have quite a lot of practice administering tablets to our not so cooperative patients. We can make sure it is administered in the correct way which means avoiding those stressful situations for you and your pet.

NAIL CLIPPING

Sometimes our beloved pets nails get too long and need trimming. Elderly pets who may not go out as much regularly need this done. We are more than happy to do this for you in the comfort of their own home which ensures no more stressful journeys to the vets.

GROOMING

Why not let us pamper your pet within their own home whilst you are away…

This service includes :

• Removing knots, mats and dead hair from their coat

• Cleaning ears

• Trimming nails

• Looking fabulously amazing whilst receiving lots of attention

We are also able to recommend professional grooming services within the South London area so please enquire for a list of recommendations.

We can also give you a list of recommended products that we have used on your pet which enables you to continue a grooming regime at home so your furry friend stays knot free.
